โฆ Synopsis
Two beam interferences produced using an electrostatic biprism, which is inserted in the position of the selected area diaphragm of a commercial electron microscope, may be used in reflection electron microscopy to determine the phase shifts induced by structures on single crystal surfaces. A description of our interferometrical and holographical experiments on the phase shift at steps on (111)Au and (111)Pt single crystal surfaces is given and a straight forward interpretation of the results in terms of refraction will be discussed. As a particular result phase shifts of IT and 0.91~ were measured for monatomic steps on (1ll)gold and (1 1l)platinum surfaces, respectively.
