Electron microscopes are the most advanced microscopes used in modern science. The electron
microscopes essentially function on the principle of a beam of electrons that strikes any objects
that comes to its path to magnify it. Electron microscopes are designed specifically for studying
cells and small particles of matter, as wells as large objects

Confocal Laser scanning microscope: Unlike compound and stereo microscopes, Confocal
Laser scanning microscopes are reserved for research organizations. Such microscopes are able
to scan a sample also in depth. A computer can then assemble the data to create a 3D image.

Neutron Microscope: Still under an experimental stage, Neutron microscope generates a high
resolution image and may offer better contrast than other forms of microscopy. The new
technology would use neutrons instead of beams of light or electrons to generate high resolution
images.
