a magnifying system capable of showing the interior or surface of a microscopic object by means of directed electron beams
An electron microscope is a magnifying tool that uses beams of electrons instead of light to examine tiny objects and see details of their surfaces or interiors. It matters because electrons can reveal much smaller details than regular microscopes, making it possible to study structures that would otherwise be invisible.

A modern transmission electron microscope (TITAN)An electron microscope is a microscope that uses a beam of electrons as a source of illumination. It uses electron optics that are analogous to the glass lenses of an optical light microscope to control the electron beam, for instance focusing it to produce magnified images or electron diffraction patterns. As the wavelength of an electron can be more than 100,000 times smaller than that of visible light, electron microscopes have a much higher resolution of about 0.1 nm, which compares to about 200 nm for light microscopes.
