Ernst Ruska was a German physicist who is best known for his pioneering work in the development of the electron microscope. Born on December 25, 1906, and passing away on May 4, 1988, Ruska's innovations laid the foundation for advances in microscopy that allowed scientists to observe structures at the nanoscale, far beyond the limits of traditional optical microscopes.
