Ruska was born in Heidelberg. He was educated at the Technical University of Munich from 1925 to 1927 and then entered the Technical University of Berlin, where he posited that microscopes using electrons, with waves 1,000 shorter than those of light, could provide a more detailed picture of an object than a microscope utilizing light, in which magnification is limited by the size of the wavelengths. In 1931, he built an electron lens and used several of these in a series to build the first electron microscope in 1933. For other uses, see Heidelberg (disambiguation). ...

| | | Full name: Ernst August Friedrich Ruska Date of birth: December 25 1906 Death: May 25 1988 he dies at age 81 Country where born: Heidelberg Germany In the year 1933 Ernst invented the microscope. It let biologists see viruses and the structure inside the cells. A Electron microscope can magnify up to 100000x. Ernst was awarded the Nobel prize in the year 1986 but only 50% of the award belongs to him. The other 50% he shares with 2 other scientists. He received an engineering degree the same year he invented the Electron microscope. |
