Pulsed laser lensing for phase modulation in electron microscopy

Daniel X. Du, Adam Bartnik, Cameron Duncan, Usama Choudhry, Tanya Tabachnik, Chaim Sallah, Yuki Ogawa, Ebrahim Najafi, Ding‐Shyue Yang, Jared M. Maxson, Anthony W. P. Fitzpatrick

This paper demonstrates pulsed laser lensing to modulate electron beam phase in microscopy, achieving a 430 rad phase shift and angular deflection of 45 microrad.
