✦ Synopsis


Realistic Monte-Carlo simulations as well as ÿrst experimental data show that classical, quasi-ballistic, phase-coherent electron oscillations are possible in relatively wide and suitably designed conÿning potentials. Two di erent conÿning potentials have been investigated and the oscillation frequencies expected from the calculations were observed in the pump and probe experiments.
