Boosting the efficiency of Smith-Purcell radiators using nanophotonic inverse design
Urs Haeusler, Michael Seidling, Peyman Yousefi +1
The generation of radiation from free electrons passing a grating, known as Smith-Purcell radiation, finds various applications including non-destructive beam diagnostics and tunab…
Charged particle guiding and beam splitting with auto-ponderomotive potentials on a chip
Robert Zimmermann, Michael Seidling, Peter Hommelhoff
We report guiding and manipulation of charged particle beams by means of electrostatic optics based on a principle similar to the electrodynamic Paul trap. We use hundreds of elect…
Coherent properties of a tunable low energy electron matter wave source
Andreas Pooch, Michael Seidling, Nicole Kerker +5
A general challenge in various quantum experiments and applications is to develop suitable sources for coherent particles. In particular, recent progress in microscopy, interferome…
A compact electron matter wave interferometer for sensor technology
Andreas Pooch, Michael Seidling, Moritz Layer +2
Remarkable progress can be observed in recent years in the controlled emission, guiding and detection of coherent, free electrons. Those methods were applied in matter wave interfe…
