E. M. (Erwin Müller)

E. M. (Erwin Müller) was a pioneering German physicist known for developing the technique of field emission microscopy, which allows scientists to examine the structure of materials at an extremely small scale—at the level of individual atoms. His work enabled detailed imaging of surfaces, aiding advances in nanotechnology and materials science. Müller’s innovations provided new insights into how atoms are arranged on surfaces, helping to understand phenomena in physics, chemistry, and engineering. His contributions significantly advanced our ability to visualize and study matter at the atomic level, impacting various technological and scientific fields.
