Spatial and energetic correlations of ultrashort two electron pulses

Stefan Meier, Jonas Heimerl, Felix López Hoffmann +3

When two electrons are emitted from a metallic needle tip into a nanometric volume on femtosecond timescales, strong Coulomb correlations arise. While longitudinal correlations, ma…

Attosecond physics in optical near fields

Jonas Heimerl, Stefan Meier, Anne Herzig +8

Attosecond science, the electron control by the field of ultrashort laser pulses, is maturing into lightfield-driven electronics, called petahertz electronics. Based on optical fie…

Driving electrons at needle tips strongly with quantum light

Jonas Heimerl, Andrei Rasputnyi, Jonathan Pölloth +3

Attosecond science relies on driving electrons after photoemission with the strong optical field of a laser pulse, representing an intense classical coherent state of light. Bright…

Multi-photon electron emission with non-classical light

Jonas Heimerl, Alexander Mikhaylov, Stefan Meier +4

Photon number distributions from classical and non-classical light sources have been studied extensively, yet their impact on photoemission processes is largely unexplored. In this…

Deep Learning-Based Spatiotemporal Multi-Event Reconstruction for Delay Line Detectors

Marco Knipfer, Stefan Meier, Jonas Heimerl +2

Accurate observation of two or more particles within a very narrow time window has always been a challenge in modern physics. It creates the possibility of correlation experiments,…

Femtosecond laser-induced electron emission from nanodiamond-coated tungsten needle tips

Alexander Tafel, Stefan Meier, Juergen Ristein +1

We present femtosecond laser-induced electron emission from nanodiamond-coated tungsten tips. Based on the shortness of the femtosecond laser pulses, electrons can be photo-excited…

High spatial coherence in multiphoton-photoemitted electron beams

Stefan Meier, Takuya Higuchi, Manuel Nutz +2

Nanometer-sharp metallic tips are known to be excellent electron emitters. They are used in highest-resolution electron microscopes in cold field emission mode to generate the most…
