COMPOUND MICROSCOPE :- The simple student's microscope which is often used in schools is called compound microscope . In these microscopes many lenses are combined together and their magnification power range from 300 to 1500 times . These microscopes use light ( generally sunlight ) to illuminate the object , so these compound microscopes are called LIGHT MICROSCOPES .
ELECTRON MICROSCOPES :- An electron microscope is a very large instrument that uses electromagnets for illumination . It uses very high voltage electricity . Electron microscope helps in observing subcellular structures which cannot be seen through a compound microscope . An internal vacuum is essential for its working . The object must be ultra thin and dry . It impregnated with some metal to enhance contrast . Magnification is 100 ,000 to 5000 , 000 .
