Amazing Scanning Electron Microscope Pictures

[Thilina Sandaruwan]

All these pictures are from the book ' Microcosmos', created by Brandon Brill from London. This book includes many scanning electron microscope (SEM) images of insects, human body parts and household items.
These are the most amazing images of what is too small to see with the naked eye.

01 - A wood or heathland Ant, Formica fusca, holding a microchip

02 - The surface of an Erasable Programmable Read-Only Memory silicon microchip

03 - Eyelash hairs growing from the surface of human skin

05 - Bacteria on the surface of a human tongue

06 - Human sperm (spermatozoa), the male sex cells

07 - The nylon hooks and loops of velcro
