Precise control over interactions between ballistic electrons will enable us to exploit Coulomb interactions in novel ways, to develop high-speed sensing, to reach a non-linear regime in electron quantum optics and to realise schemes for…
The non-linear response of a beam splitter to the coincident arrival of interacting particles enables numerous applications in quantum engineering and metrology yet poses considerable challenge to achieve focused interactions on the…
Control of the Coulomb interaction between single electrons is vital for realizing quantum information processing using flying electrons and, particularly, for the realization of deterministic two-qubit operations. Since the strength of the…
Electron flying qubits are envisioned as potential information link within a quantum computer, but also promise -- alike photonic approaches -- a self-standing quantum processing unit. In contrast to its photonic counterpart,…

We demonstrate the generation of Coulomb-correlated pair, triple and quadruple states of free electrons by femtosecond photoemission from a nanoscale field emitter inside a transmission electron microscope. Event-based electron spectroscopy…
Electrons in a metal are indistinguishable particles that strongly interact with other electrons and their environment. Isolating and detecting a single flying electron after propagation to perform quantum optics like experiments at the…
The unique property of Coulomb interaction in strict one-dimensional (1D) system is revealed that the Coulomb repulsion energy of paired electrons is divergent. As consequences, electrons in 1D system can not doubly occupy the same spatial…
Heat dissipation in current-carrying cryogenic nanostructures is problematic because the phonon density of states decreases strongly as energy decreases. We show that the Coulomb interaction can prove a valuable resource for carrier cooling…

Electrical contacts between nano-engineered systems are expected to constitute the basic building blocks of future nano-scale electronics. However, the accurate characterization and understanding of electrical contacts at the nano-scale is…
Recent experiments about the low temperature behaviour of a Single Wall Carbon Nanotube (SWCNT) showed typical Coulomb Blockade (CB) peaks in the zero bias conductance and allowed us to investigate the energy levels of interacting…
With recent experiments investigating the optical properties of progressively smaller plasmonic particles, quantum effects become increasingly more relevant, requiring a microscopic description. Using the density matrix formalism we analyze…

We use time-resolved charge detection techniques to investigate single-electron tunneling in semiconductor quantum dots. The ability to detect individual charges in real-time makes it possible to count electrons one-by-one as they pass…
Coulomb interaction between charged particles is a well-known phenomenon in many areas of researches. In general the Coulomb repulsion force broadens the pulse width of an electron bunch and limits the temporal resolution of many scientific…
