In an ultrafast transmission electron microscope (UTEM), inelastic scattering between a free-electron beam and strong optical near fields [1] allows for a coherent manipulation of the electron quantum state. In this mechanism, the optical field imprints a sinusoidal phase modulation on the electron wave function, which, after subsequent dispersive propagation, results in a temporal electron density modulation [2].

Here, we employ a second electron-light interaction at varied propagation distances with accurately controlled phase delay, and reconstruct the temporal shape of the electron density at each distance with our quantum state tomography algorithm SQUIRRELS  [3]. We demonstrate the compression of electron pulses into trains of attosecond bursts and explore the improvement of pulse durations by minimizing phase averaging effects. Such pulse trains will promote new forms of ultrafast electron microscopy with attosecond resolution.
