Direct observation of thitherto unobservable quantum phenomena by using electrons

Akira Tonomura

Fundamental aspects of quantum mechanics, which were discussed only theoretically as "thought experiments" in the 1920s and 1930s, have begun to frequently show up in nanoscopic regions owing to recent rapid progress in advanced technologies. Quantum phenomena were once regarded as the ultimate factors limiting further miniaturization trends of microstructured electronic devices, but now they have begun to be actively used as the principles for new devices such as quantum computers. To directly observe what had been unobservable quantum phenomena, we have tried to develop bright and monochromatic electron beams for the last 35 years. Every time the brightness of an electron beam improved, fundamental experiments in quantum mechanics became possible, and quantum phenomena became observable by using the wave nature of electrons.

Macroscopic quantum phenomena and quantum computation in superconducting Josephson devices

Yang Yu

Electrons in a superconductor form Cooper pairs and thus condense into a ground state which can be described by a macroscopic quantum wavefunction. The phase of the wavefunction represents a collective movement of millions of Cooper pairs. Using devices based on Josephson tunnel junctions we are able to control and detect the phase and number of Cooper pairs in a superconductor. Josephson devices are therefore excellent systems for demonstrating macroscopic quantum phenomena. We present a short review of the macroscopic quantum phenomena in superconducting Josephson devices, as well as their applications and prospects in quantum computationl.

Computer animation of electron motion in nanometer scale devices

Hans A. De Raedt, Kristel F. L. Michielsen

A discussion is given of a technique to simulate the quantum mechanical motion of electrons in nano-scale devices. The results of the simulation are used to produce digital video's, facilitating the interpretation of the quantum mechanical phenomena. The power and flexibility of the simulation method is illustrated by some examples of electron emission from nano-meter scale sources.
