An electron microscope employs an electron beam to illuminate and magnify specimens, offering significantly enhanced resolution and magnification compared to light microscopes. It is indispensable in fields such as materials science, biology, and nanotechnology, allowing scientists to observe minute details of cells, viruses, and other structures.
There are two main types of electron microscopes transmission electron microscopes (TEM) and scanning electron microscopes (SEM). Transmission electron microscopes (TEM) are powerful instruments that use electron beams to produce detailed atomic-scale images of samples. They operate by passing electrons through thin specimen sections, revealing internal structures and crystallographic details. These microscopes find diverse applications in semiconductors, life sciences, materials science, and nanotechnology, serving various end-users such as industries, institutions, private laboratories, among others.

The electron microscope market size has grown strongly in recent years. It will grow from $3.35 billion in 2023 to $3.62 billion in 2024 at a compound annual growth rate (CAGR) of 8.2%. The increase in consumer electronics demand, electron diffraction techniques, demand for ultrafast electron microscopy, applications in material science and nanotechnology, and semiconductor inspection contributed to growth during the historic period.
The electron microscope market size is expected to see strong growth in the next few years. It will grow to $5.04 billion in 2028 at a compound annual growth rate (CAGR) of 8.6%. During the forecast period, growth is driven by the growing demand for advanced magnification equipment, quality control requirements, root-cause failure analysis, rising chronic disease rates, and the need for high-resolution imaging across various industries. Key trends include technological advancements, cryo-electron microscopy, artificial intelligence integration, ultrafast electron microscopy, and the adoption of electron diffraction techniques.
The electron microscope market is poised for growth driven by increasing demand for diagnostic imaging. Diagnostic imaging encompasses a range of technologies that visualize internal body structures for medical purposes such as diagnosis, monitoring, and treatment. Factors contributing to this demand include technological advancements, an aging population, rising prevalence of chronic illnesses, and a greater focus on early detection and preventive healthcare. Electron microscopes play a crucial role in diagnostic imaging, particularly in research and specialized medical applications requiring exceptionally high resolution and magnification. For example, in November 2023, the National Health Service reported a 2.2% increase in imaging tests to 45.0 million from 44.0 million in 2022, underscoring the growing reliance on diagnostic imaging and its impact on driving the electron microscope market forward.
Leading companies in the electron microscope market are dedicated to innovation, focusing on advanced products such as scanning electron microscopes to meet the growing demand for microscopy in research, industry, and healthcare. A scanning electron microscope (SEM) is specialized for producing highly detailed surface images of specimens using a concentrated electron beam. For example, in July 2023, JEOL Ltd., a prominent Japan-based manufacturer of electron microscopes and scientific instruments, launched two new models, the JSM-IT710HRT and the JSM-IT210 InTouchScope. These SEMs represent a significant advancement in user-friendliness and rapid, high-resolution imaging and analysis. They incorporate cutting-edge automation features that simplify data acquisition across various specimen types, enhancing efficiency and productivity in research and industrial settings. Equipped with intuitive interfaces and advanced imaging algorithms, these next-generation SEMs seamlessly integrate into diverse scientific workflows, enabling users to gain comprehensive insights with unparalleled clarity and precision.
