Simplified cross section of magnetic type of electron microscope. nification of the projection lens can be varied over a wide range by adjusting the current in the exciting coil. The available range may be as much as 4 to 1. If a greater range of magnification is desired, they can be achieved by replacing the polepieces of the projection lens or through the provision of a third lens, which—when varied appropriately in conjunction with the normal projection lens—can provide variations in magnification over a range of 500 to 1. In the light microscope all of the useful magnification is usually obtained directly in the instrument. In the electron microscope this is seldom done for a number of purely technical reasons. The first of these is that at the highest magnifications the field of view is. Please note t
