Title
Focused electron beam induced deposition as a tool to create electron vortices
Author
Abstract
Focused electron beam induced deposition (FEBID) is a microscopic technique that allows geometrically controlled material deposition with very high spatial resolution. This technique was used to create a spiral aperture capable of generating electron vortex beams in a transmission electron microscope (TEM). The vortex was then fully characterized using different TEM techniques, estimating the average orbital angular momentum to be ∼0.8ℏ per electron with almost 60% of the beam ending up in the ℓ = 1 state.
