abstract = {In light optics, beams with orbital angular momentum (OAM)
can be produced by employing a properly-tuned
two-cylinder-lens arrangement, also called /2 mode
converter. It is not possible to convey this concept
directly to the beam in an electron microscope due to the
non-existence of cylinder lenses in commercial transmission
electron microscopes (TEMs). A viable work-around are
readily-available electron optical elements in the form of
quadrupole lenses. In a proof-of-principle experiment in
2012, it has been shown that a single quadrupole in
combination with a Hilbert phase-plate produces a
spatially-confined, transient vortex mode.Here, an analogue
to an optical /2 mode converter is realized by repurposing
a CEOS DCOR probe corrector in an aberration corrected TEM
in a way that it resembles a dual cylinder lens using two
quadrupoles. In order to verify the presence of OAM in the
output beam, a fork dislocation grating is used as an OAM
analyser. The possibility to use magnetic quadrupole fields
instead of, e.g., prefabricated fork dislocation gratings to
produce electron beams carrying OAM enhances the beam
brightness by almost an order of magnitude and delivers
switchable high-mode purity vortex beams without unwanted
side-bands.},
