I want to learn the basics of electron microscopy, basic, theory, design and construction. Any reference, which at least gives a starting point will be helpful.
Try the text book : S. Amelinckx (Editor), Dirk van Dyck (Editor), J. van Landuyt (Editor), Gustaaf van Tendeloo (Editor) - Electron Microscopy: Principles and Fundamentals, ISBN: 978-3-527-61455-4, Sep 2008
