Using two independent on-demand electron sources [1], two single-electron wavepackets are emitted on one-dimensional chiral edge channel located at at different inputs of an electronic beamsplitter. Whereas classical particles would be randomly partitioned by the splitter, we observe two-particle interferences resulting from quantum exchange in this electronic analog [2,3] of the optical Hong-Ou-Mandel [4] experiment. Both electrons, emitted in indistinguishable wavepackets with synchronized arrival time on the splitter, exit in different outputs as recorded by the low frequency current noise. Full random partitioning is recovered when the arrival of one electron is delayed with respect to the other. This two-electron interference experiment demonstrates the possibility to generate on-demand coherent and indistinguishable single-electron wavepackets in a quantum conductor.
