Abstract :
A Pt field emitter with two adjacent emission sites was fabricated by electron-beam induced deposition (EBID). The interference of electron waves in field emission from artificially fabricated two different points was observed for the first time. The observed interference fringes were well reproduced by the Young´s interference. These results draw a possibility of the new devices based on the interference of the coherent electrons in vacuum
