  • Scanning Microscopes: SEM, Stereomicroscopes & STM Explained
    There are a few microscopes that start with the letter "S":

    * Scanning Electron Microscope (SEM): This type of microscope uses a focused beam of electrons to scan the surface of a sample, producing high-resolution 3D images.

    * Stereomicroscope (Dissecting Microscope): This microscope is used to view larger objects or specimens that are too thick for a traditional light microscope. It provides a three-dimensional view of the specimen.

    * Scanning Tunneling Microscope (STM): This type of microscope is used to study the surface of materials at the atomic level. It uses a sharp probe to scan the surface and create an image based on the electrical current between the probe and the surface.

    Let me know if you were thinking of a specific type of microscope, and I'll be happy to provide more information!
