Ernst Ruska – The Inventor of Electron Microscope

Although electron microscope was patented by Reinhold Rudenberg in 1931, the invention of the
microscope which uses the electron beam rather than light to produce an image is traditionally credited
to the German physicist Ernst Ruska. Ruska developed the first prototype of electron microscope
together with Max Knoll in 1931 and two years later, he (alone) built the first electron microscope
which gave a better resolution than the light microscope. In 1986, Ruska was awarded the Nobel Prize
for his work in the field of electron optics as well as for construction of the first electron microscope.

Ernst Ruska was born on 25 December 1906 in Heidelberg, Germany to Professor Julius Ruska and his
wife Elizabeth. After grammar school in Heidelberg, he continued education at the Technical College in
Munich and later in Berlin where he got involved with high voltage and vacuum technology. At the
same time, he worked on the development of high performance cathode ray oscilloscope with Dr Max
Knoll and other students. Soon, however, Ruska became interested in electrons. His first scientific work
in 1928-29 thus dealt with Hans Busch’s electron lens. And while he was researching Busch’s
discovery, he realised that that an electron microscope with a 1,000 times shorter wavelengths from the
ordinary light microscope could be used to get a better image with more details.
