Since the electron posseses permanently an electric and a magnetic field to search for a model of the constituents of this inner structure and the two fields should be good scientific area of research. This model has to explain not only both field components of the electron but also both components of the EM radiation.

Was scientific work done about the inner structure of the electron and its magnetic and electric fields? Are there any ideas?

There are still ongoing experiments that look for a possible inner structure of the electron. Mostly, these experiments aim at a measurement of the electron dipole moment for comparison with theoretical predictions (Standard Model, Super Symmetry,...). See for instance the group of Ed Hinds at Imperial College London and the ACME Collaboration (Dave DeMille, John Doyle, Gerard Gabrielse at Yale and Harvard).
