Young's interference of electrons in field emission patterns

2002 
We have observed interference fringes of electrons in field emission patterns from multiwalled carbon nanotubes at 60 K. The observed fringe pattern is reproduced by calculations based on the formula of Young's interference of two beams. Three-beam interference has also been detected over short time periods. We discuss the reason why Young's interference appears in the electron emission pattern in accelerating fields.
