“Is magnetic chiral dichroism feasible with electron vortices?”.Schattschneider P, Löffler S, Stöger-Pollach M, Verbeeck J, Ultramicroscopy 136, 81 (2014). http://doi.org/10.1016/j.ultramic.2013.07.012
Abstract: We discuss the feasibility of detecting magnetic transitions with focused electron vortex probes, suggested by selection rules for the magnetic quantum number. We theoretically estimate the dichroic signal strength in the L2,3 edge of ferromagnetic d metals. It is shown that under realistic conditions, the dichroic signal is undetectable for nanoparticles larger than View the MathML source. This is confirmed by a key experiment with nanometer-sized vortices.

“Sub-nanometer free electrons with topological charge”. Schattschneider P, Stöger-Pollach M, Löffler S, Steiger-Thirsfeld A, Hell J, Verbeeck J, Ultramicroscopy 115, 21 (2012). http://doi.org/10.1016/j.ultramic.2012.01.010
Abstract: The holographic mask technique is used to create freely moving electrons with quantized angular momentum. With electron optical elements they can be focused to vortices with diameters below the nanometer range. The understanding of these vortex beams is important for many applications. Here, we produce electron vortex beams and compare them to a theory of electrons with topological charge. The experimental results show excellent agreement with simulations. As an immediate application, fundamental experimental parameters like spherical aberration and partial coherence are determined. (C) 2012 Elsevier B.V. All rights reserved.

“Atomic scale electron vortices for nanoresearch”. Verbeeck J, Schattschneider P, Lazar S, Stöger-Pollach M, Löffler S, Steiger-Thirsfeld A, Van Tendeloo G, Applied physics letters 99, 203109 (2011). http://doi.org/10.1063/1.3662012
Abstract: Electron vortex beams were only recently discovered and their potential as a probe for magnetism in materials was shown. Here we demonstrate a method to produce electron vortex beams with a diameter of less than 1.2 Å. This unique way to prepare free electrons to a state resembling atomic orbitals is fascinating from a fundamental physics point of view and opens the road for magnetic mapping with atomic resolution in an electron microscope.
