/ˈmaɪkrəˌɡræf/,

/ˈmaɪkroʊˌɡræf/

Origin: Formed within English, by compounding. Etymons: micro- comb. form, -graph comb. form.

Etymology: < micro- comb. form + -graph comb. form. In sense 1 probably as shortened form of microphotograph n. or photomicrograph n.; in sense 2 probably as shortened form of microphotograph n. With sense 3 compare earlier micropantograph n. at micro- comb. form 2b(e). Compare earlier micrography n.

1. Originally: a photographic or (rarely) a hand-drawn reproduction of the image of a specimen as viewed under a light microscope; cf. earlier photomicrograph n. Later also: a reproduction of the image of a specimen obtained by other types of microscopy; esp. in electron micrograph n. at electron n.² Compounds 2. Cf. microphotograph n. 2, photomicrograph n.

1869 Sci. Amer. 25 Dec. 409/3 Such pictures are called micrographs, and are produced by combining a microscope with a photographic camera.

1892 New Eng. Mag. Apr. 169 He had had occasion to make a series of micrographs, illustrating certain microscopic studies, for his graduation thesis.

1904 Electrochem. Industry Mar. 88/2 This embodies..the determination of oxygen content, the preparation of micrographs, and..the planimetric measurements of enlarged micrographs, with calculation of the percentage of oxygen.

1916 Trans. Amer. Inst. Mining Engineers 1915 51 832 The micrographs shown at the end of this report reproduce the average structure of the top and bottom tensile bars.

1916 Trans. Amer. Inst. Mining Engineers 1915 51 833 All micrographs are magnified 100 diameters.

1941 Science 14 Feb. 148/1 By means of this instrument [sc. an electron microscope] Dr. Anderson has secured many micrographs not only of tobacco mosaic virus but of other viruses.

1953 Jrnl. Appl. Physics 24 616/1 The simplest method of obtaining x-ray micrographs is to place the specimen in contact with a photographic film of the maximum resolution type and expose it to the radiation from a normal x-ray tube. All the enlargement is obtained photographically.

1984 E. P. DeGarmo et al. Materials & Processes in Manuf. (ed. 6) xvi. 466 The tracks produced by the stylus tip are easily seen in the micrograph.
