A device comprising of multiple such phase shifter elements will be able to modulate the wavefront of a coherent electron beam and control electron interference. In this work, we develop a fabrication method for multi-element electron phase shifter by utilizing state-of-the-art electron beam lithography and reactive ion etching techniques. We fabricated a device with three phase shifter elements in metal-insulator-metal structure and tested its electron transmission characteristics in a transmission electron microscope at beam energy of 200 keV. The experiment confirmed the voltage-controlled evolution of electron interference for individual phase shifter element. We demonstrate the voltage-controlled phase shifting properties of phase shifter elements and analyze the experimental results in comparison with 3-dimensional electrostatic simulation.","PeriodicalId":292538,"journal":{"name":"2020 33rd International Vacuum Nanoelectronics Conference (IVNC)","volume":"120 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2020-07-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"116573218","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

The measured light intensity of the optical spectra has a strong correlation with the current in the gap as the supply voltage is increased and a characteristic broadband spectrum between 550nm and 850nm. The spectrum also has some variation in intensity at different wavelengths depending on the angle of observation. Possible causes of this light include black body radiation, optical transition radiation and cathode luminescence. Further work is ongoing to determine the cause of the optical spectra, to potentially provide insight into the characteristics and evolution of emission sites.","PeriodicalId":292538,"journal":{"name":"2020 33rd International Vacuum Nanoelectronics Conference (IVNC)","volume":"32 3 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2020-07-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"132086624","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}
