摘要

We discuss the loss of coherence in interfering electron beams due to fluctuating electromagnetic fields. This effect arises from fluctuations of the Aharonov-Bohm phase and results in a loss of contrast in the interference pattern. We present some explicit results for various examples of classical time-varying electromagnetic fields. In some cases, the effect may be large enough to observe in electron interferometry experiments.
