Tunable caustic phenomena in electron wavefields.
نویسندگان
چکیده
Novel caustic phenomena, which contain fold, butterfly and elliptic umbilic catastrophes, are observed in defocused images of two approximately collinear oppositely biased metallic tips in a transmission electron microscope. The observed patterns depend sensitively on defocus, on the applied voltage between the tips and on their separation and lateral offset. Their main features are interpreted on the basis of a projected electrostatic potential model for the electron-optical phase shift.

متن کاملTunable Focusing in Natural Hyperbolic Magnetic Media
While optical effects such as negative refraction and imaging obtained from slab lenses with plane parallel sides are widely studied using metamaterials, it is less well known that these effects can occur naturally in certain materials. We discuss a class of natural hyperbolic materials that not only display similar effects but also allow one to modify the focal length of a slab lens with an ex...

Quasi–static transport measurements are employed to characterize a few electron quantum dot electrostatically defined in a GaAs/AlGaAs heterostructure. The gate geometry allows observations on one and the same electron droplet within a wide range of coupling strengths to the leads. The weak coupling regime is described by discrete quantum states. At strong interaction with the leads Kondo pheno...

Abstract Uniform colloidal monodispersed silica nanoparticles were synthesized via stöber method using ammonia as a basic catalyst. Field Emission Scanning Electron Microscope (FESEM) was confirmed the homogeneous nanospheres. The decrease of TEOS concentration (0.067 to 0.012 mol L-1) and an increase of H2O concentration (3 to 14 mol L-1) at 14 mol L-1 NH3 fixed accelerated the rate of h...
متن کاملUltrafast Microscopy: Imaging Light with Photoelectrons on the Nano-Femto Scale.
Experimental methods for ultrafast microscopy are advancing rapidly. Promising methods combine ultrafast laser excitation with electron-based imaging or rely on super-resolution optical techniques to enable probing of matter on the nano-femto scale. Among several actively developed methods, ultrafast time-resolved photoemission electron microscopy provides several advantages, among which the fo...
