Quantum optics with swift electrons
Abstract Stimulated and spontaneous interactions of electron wavepackets with optical near fields were explored with complementary techniques. In striking agreement with theory, scientists have demonstrated the dependence of spontaneous and stimulated quantum mechanical processes on the spatial dist...
