Correct Answer

transmission electron microscope

Explanation

These electrons are passed through a thinly sliced specimen within a vacuum to prevent any electrons from being deflected and absorbed by the gas molecules in the air.  Then the electrons are focused with electromagnets on a photographic plate, producing an image that is considerably better than that obtained with a light microscope.
