Fill the blank spaces to complete the text.

microscopes emit a wavelength of radiation of about nanometers, resulting in a very high . They are also able to images much more than other types of microscope. During the process, are 'spat out' by a . Instead of a glass lens to focus the image in other types of microscope, the microscope uses a . When the electrons reach the sample, some pass it and some bounce off, depending on whether the microscope is (SEM) or (TEM).
