Toward Optimum Coupling between Free Electrons and Confined Optical Modes
Valerio Di Giulio, Evelijn Akerboom, Albert Polman +1
Free electrons are unique tools to probe and manipulate nanoscale optical fields with emerging applications in ultrafast spectromicroscopy and quantum metrology. However, advances…
Nanophotonics for pair production
Valerio Di Giulio, F. Javier García de Abajo
The transformation of electromagnetic energy into matter represents a fascinating prediction of relativistic quantum electrodynamics that is paradigmatically exemplified by the cre…
Optical-cavity mode squeezing by free electrons
Valerio Di Giulio, F. Javier García de Abajo
The generation of nonclassical light states bears a paramount importance in quantum optics and is largely relying on the interaction between intense laser pulses and nonlinear medi…
Optical manipulation of matter waves
Kamran Akbari, Valerio Di Giulio, F. Javier García de Abajo
Light is extensively used to steer the motion of atoms in free space, enabling cooling and trapping of matter waves through ponderomotive forces and Doppler-mediated photon scatter…
Modulation of Cathodoluminescence Emission by Interference with External Light
Valerio Di Giulio, Ofer Kfir, Claus Ropers +1
Spontaneous processes triggered in a sample by free electrons are commonly regarded as incoherent, and therefore unable to interfere with external light sources. Here, we challenge…
