One of the major applications is in electron-tunneling microscopes (see scanning tunneling microscope) used to see objects that are too small to see using conventional microscopes. Electron tunneling microscopes overcome the limiting effects of conventional microscopes ( optical aberrations, wavelength limitations) by scanning the surface of an object with tunneling electrons.
