Exact excerpt
Averaging CBED patterns of 356 atom pairs, clear interference fringes appeared up to 3rd-order bright lines perpendicular to the direction connecting atomic columns. The period of fringes was the same as the value expected from the atomic column interval of 136 pm, showing that this atom pair worked precisely as a double slit. ... Furthermore, the researchers extracted information about correlated atomic thermal vibrations from the interference fringes. ... the team found that neighboring atoms vibrate in a correlated manner, and that this correlated motion plays a key role in preserving electron-wave interference.
