Abstract
The coherence of the electron beam emitted at a low applied field from a single micrometer size mineral particle deposited on a carbon membrane is demonstrated by holography experiments. The experimental design combining this electron source with a conventional electrostatic lens system opens a way to holographic microscopy with low-energy electrons.Keywords
