Wavelength Determines Resolution

 

 

example : a swimming pool
       waves are 1 meter apart (a 1 meter wavelength)
       push a stick into the water

pool's waves just pass around the stick

1 meter wavelength pool waves unaffected
       by a tiny target E = hf = hc/l,  
l
=hc/E  

want small wavelength?
       get big energy
