Charles Oatley (1912–2013) was an influential British physicist and engineer, best known for his contributions to the field of electron microscopy. He is considered a pioneer in the development of high-resolution transmission electron microscopy, which has been crucial for advances in materials science and biology. Oatley’s work laid the groundwork for using electron microscopes in various applications, including the observation of biological specimens at a molecular level.
