microscopía electrónica, historia de la microscopía electrónica, microscopía electrónica de transmisión (TEM), Avances en TEMResumen
A casi un siglo de su invención, el microscopio electrónico de transmisión (MET) continúa siendo una de las herramientas más poderosas para explorar el mundo invisible. Este artículo presenta un recorrido histórico por los principales hitos que dieron origen a esta tecnología, desde los descubrimientos fundamentales sobre el comportamiento de los electrones hasta la construcción del primer prototipo por Ernst Ruska y Max Knoll en 1931. Se explican también los principios básicos de funcionamiento del MET y se destacan algunos de sus aportes más trascendentes a la ciencia, como la observación de virus, la elucidación de la estructura del ADN, el análisis de ultraestructuras celulares, y los avances en nanotecnología. A través de una narrativa clara y accesible, el texto busca acercar al lector al impacto que ha tenido esta tecnología en disciplinas como la biología, la medicina y la ciencia de materiales, en vísperas de su primer centenario.
