Question
which two microscopes generate three - dimensional images?
scanning electron microscope and scanning tunneling microscope
transmission electron microscope and scanning electron microscope
scanning tunneling microscope and transmission electron microscope
compound light microscope and scanning electron microscope
Scanning electron microscopes (SEMs) and scanning tunneling microscopes (STMs) can generate three - dimensional images. SEMs work by scanning a focused electron beam over a surface and detecting secondary electrons to create a 3 - D like image of the surface topography. STMs use the quantum tunneling effect to map the surface of a material at the atomic scale and can also generate 3 - D images. Transmission electron microscopes (TEMs) mainly produce 2 - D images of thin sections of samples, and compound light microscopes also typically produce 2 - D images.
