Ernst Ruska (1906–1988) was a German physicist who invented the electron microscope, for which he was awarded the Nobel Prize in Physics in 1986. His work revolutionized microscopy by using electron beams to achieve far higher resolution than light microscopes, enabling the visualization of viruses, molecules, and atomic structures.
