=== Other types === [[Scanning acoustic microscope]]s use sound waves to measure variations in acoustic impedance. Similar to [[Sonar]] in principle, they are used for such jobs as detecting defects in the subsurfaces of materials including those found in integrated circuits. On February 4, 2013, Australian engineers built a "quantum microscope" which provides unparalleled precision.<ref>{{cite web|url=https://www.sciencedaily.com/releases/2013/02/130204163442.htm|title=Quantum Microscope for Living Biology|website=Science Daily|date=4 February 2013|access-date=5 February 2013}}</ref> ====Mobile apps==== [[Mobile app]] microscopes can optionally be used as [[optical microscope]] when the flashlight is activated. However, mobile app microscopes are harder to use due to visual [[Noise (video)|noise]], are often limited to 40x, and the resolution limits of the [[camera lens]] itself.
