• Roadmap on structured light (2016, background): “With this in mind, several research groups independently demonstrated electron OAM beams [6, 196, 197] by coherently sculpting free electron matter waves into helical structures.”
• Theory and applications of free-electron vortex states (2017, methodology): “In 2010, free-electron vortex beams were indeed produced in transmission electron microscopes (TEMs) by Uchida and Tonomura [76] and Verbeeck et al.”
