Year 12 Biology Scanning Electron Microscope Experience
Published 10/03/26Students at North Liverpool Academy Sixth Form studying A-Level Biology recently visited Liverpool Life Sciences UTC to see a Scanning Electron Microscope in action.
What is a scanning electron microscope?
A Scanning Electron Microscope (SEM) is a microscope that produces high-resolution, 3D-like, topographic images of materials at nano-to-micro scales by scanning a focused electron beam across a conductive sample surface. Operating in a vacuum, it offers superior magnification (up to 300,000x+) and depth of field compared to light microscopes, with applications in materials science, biology, and forensics.
Read our Year 12 student Abdullah's recap of the experience in his own words below.
