Abstract
We use laser light and a transmission electron microscope to modulate a free-electron beam into high-contrast electron pulses and free-electron qubits by using temporal Talbot revivals. At large enough propagation distances, the discrete energy sidebands from a laser modulation acquire special phases and group delays that optimize or cancel their time-domain interference, producing a revival or alternatively a pulse train at close to 100% modulation depth. A sequence of two laser interactions at an optimized propagation distance allows us to coherently control adjacent energy sidebands in amplitude and phase in the way of a qubit. The use of continuous-wave laser light provides these modulations at almost the full brightness of the beam source. Free electrons under large-distance laser control are therefore a promising tool for ultrafast material characterizations or investigations of free-electron quantum mechanics.
