Aharonov-Bohm (AB) effect, the well-known archetype of electron-wave interference phenomena, has been explored extensively through transport measurements. However, these techniques lack spatial resolution that would be indispensable for studying the magnetic and electrostatic AB oscillations at the nanometer scale. Here, we demonstrated that scanning tunneling microscopy (STM) can be used as an AB interferometer operating on nanometer length scales and the magneto-electric Aharonov-Bohm effect in minimally twisted bilayer graphene (TBG) was directly measured by using STM. In the minimally TBG, there is a triangular network of chiral one-dimensional states hosted by domain boundaries due to structural reconstruction. Taking advantage of the high spatial resolution of the STM, both the magnetic and electrostatic AB oscillations arising from electron interference along moir\'e-scale triangular quantum paths in the minimally TBG were measured. Our work enables measure and control of the AB effect and other electron-wave interference at the nanoscale. |
