I wonder if you could do digital holography with this?


not sure about holography, i think one can imagine how an electron beam modulated surface (or may be volume) can say change laser direction thus providing kind of non-mechanical scanning in a lidar for example. Though it sounds like a last century approach. These days i'd bet on something like nanotube channeling the beam and say flexing in response to the field.
