Steering of Sub-GeV electrons by ultrashort Si and Ge bent crystals

Abstract We report the observation of the steering of 855 MeV electrons by bent silicon and germanium crystals at the MAinzer MIkrotron. Crystals with 15 $$\upmu $$ μ m of length, bent along (111) planes, were exploited to investigate orientational coherent effects. By using a piezo-actuated mechani...
