Strong inelastic scattering of slow electrons by optical near fields of small nanoparticles
Germann Hergert, Andreas Woeste, Petra Gross +1
The interaction of swift, free-space electrons with confined optical near fields has recently sparked much interest. It enables a new type of photon-induced near-field electron mic…
Watching charge separation in nanoantennas by ultrafast point-projection electron microscopy
Jan Vogelsang, Germann Hergert, Dong Wang +2
Watching the motion of electrons on their natural nanometre length- and femtosecond time scales is a fundamental goal and an open challenge of contemporary ultrafast science. Optic…
Wave front adaptation using a deformable mirror for adiabatic nanofocusing along an ultrasharp gold taper
Slawa Schmidt, Pascal Engelke, Bjoern Piglosiewicz +6
We describe and demonstrate the use of an adaptive wave front optimization scheme for enhancing the efficiency of adiabatic nanofocusing of surface plasmon polariton (SPP) waves al…
k-space Imaging of the Eigenmodes of Sharp Gold Tapers for Scanning Near-Field Optical Microscopy
Martin Esmann, Simon F. Becker, Bernard B. da Cunha +4
We investigate the radiation patterns of sharp conical gold tapers, designed as adiabatic nanofocusing probes for scanning near-field optical microscopy (SNOM). Field calculations…
Carrier-envelope phase effects on the strong-field photoemission of electrons from metallic nanostructures
Bjoern Piglosiewicz, Slawa Schmidt, Doo Jae Park +5
Sharp metallic nanotapers irradiated with few-cycle laser pulses are emerging as a source of highly confined coherent electron wavepackets with attosecond duration and strong direc…
Spatially dependent Rabi oscillations: an approach to sub-diffraction-limited CARS microscopy
Willem P. Beeker, Chris J. Lee, Klaus-Jochen Boller +5
We present a theoretical investigation of coherent anti-Stokes Raman scattering (CARS) that is modulated by periodically depleting the ground state population through Rabi oscillat…
