Cathode lens electron microscopy: past and future

This retrospective sketches the evolution of emission electron microscopy, low energy electron microscopy and related methods from the early stages up to the present state and gives a brief outlook on the future possibilities of these cathode lens electron microscopy techniques. It is concerned mainly with instrumentation, discusses some little known work and emphasizes important steps in the evolution of the field instead of attempting to review it in detail.
