Which outcome arises when a Transmission Electron Microscope increases resolution beyond its classical limit using a small electron beam?

A)Increased quantum tunneling probability
B)Decreased background electron scattering
C)Enhanced secondary electron emission
D)Reduced chromatic aberration artifacts

💡 Explanation

Increased resolution leads to a higher probability of quantum tunneling of electrons through the sample because decreasing beam size decreases the potential barrier width; therefore, electrons may pass through, rather than interacting via classical scattering.
