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…
