Quick Answer. Physicist Ernst Ruska and German engineer Max Knoll are credited with creating the first electron microscope in 1932. It permitted researchers greater magnification and resolution than traditional light microscopes.
Zacharias Janssen is the Dutch spectacle maker who is widely credited as the inventor of the first compound microscope. Although many of the archives surrounding Janssen's invention have been lost, historians believe that Zacharias and his father Hans invented the first microscope at some point in the 1590s.
