Observation of the Stimulated Quantum Cherenkov Effect
Saar Nehemia, Raphael Dahan, Michael Shentcis +8
As charged particles surpass the speed of light in an optical medium they produce radiation - analogously to the way jet planes surpass the speed of sound and produce a sonic boom.…
Monochromatic X-ray source based on scattering from a magnetic nanoundulator
Sophie Fisher, Charles Roques-Carmes, Nicholas Rivera +3
We present a novel design for an ultra-compact, passive light source capable of generating ultraviolet and X-ray radiation, based on the interaction of free electrons with the magn…
Coherent interaction between free electrons and a photonic cavity
Kangpeng Wang, Raphael Dahan, Michael Shentcis +5
Since its inception, research of cavity quantum electrodynamics (CQED) has extended our understanding of light-matter interactions and our ability to utilize them. Thus far, all th…
Abruptly Focusing and Defocusing Needles of Light and Closed-Form Electromagnetic Wavepackets
Liang Jie Wong, Ido Kaminer
Fourier optics enforces a tradeoff between length and narrowness in electromagnetic wavepackets, so that a narrow spatial focus diffracts at a large divergence angle, and only infi…
Ultrashort Tilted-Pulse-Front Pulses and Nonparaxial Tilted-Phase-Front Beams
Liang Jie Wong, Ido Kaminer
Electromagnetic pulses with tilted pulse fronts are instrumental in enhancing the efficiency of many light-matter interaction processes, with prominent examples including terahertz…
Maximal Spontaneous Photon Emission and Energy Loss from Free Electrons
Yi Yang, Aviram Massuda, Charles Roques-Carmes +7
Free electron radiation such as Cerenkov, Smith--Purcell, and transition radiation can be greatly affected by structured optical environments, as has been demonstrated in a variety…
