An electron microscope is a type of microscope that uses a beam of electrons instead of light to create highly magnified images of specimens. By using electrons, which have a much shorter wavelength than visible light, electron microscopes can achieve much higher resolution, allowing them to visualize structures at the nanometer or even atomic scale.

•    About Us Our Story (History of NSC)
The Nanoscopy Science Center (NSC) at Kuwait University, Faculty of Science is the best facility of its type in Kuwait and in the region. It was established in 1976. Currently the unit has four microscopes:
•    Scanning Transmission Electron Microscope (STEM)
•    Scanning Electron Microscope (SEM Carryscope)
•    Atomic Force Microscope (AFM)
•    Laser Scanning Confocal Microscope (LSCM)
Besides sample imaging and analysis, NSC also provides training and workshops on related topics as well as receiving visits from Public and Private Schools in Kuwait.
