Potential Energy Shift in Single Electron Spatial Interference

Authors: Thomas Alexander Meyer

I propose an idealized electron interference experiment with a light-port/dark-port configuration and consider the possible outcomes for the average energy of electric potential that is present in a statistically relevant set of single electron measurements. The changes in energy of electric potential of the electron during its evolution will cause a shift in the kinetic energy or momentum of the electron, and this calculated shift may be interpreted differently for the case of interference and non-interference. I also propose an idealized single electron spatial interference effect and the associated changes in states of electric potential.
