The present status and development of strong-field nano-optics, an emerging field of
nonlinear optics, is discussed. A nonperturbative regime of light-matter interactions is …

This paper reviews the requirements and current status of cathodes for accelerator
applications, and proposes a research and development plan for advancing cathode …

Strong-field physics, an extreme limit of light–matter interaction,,, is expanding into the realm
of surfaces, and nanostructures,,,,, from its origin in atomic and molecular science,,,. The …

We demonstrate the ultrafast generation of electrons from tailored metallic nanoparticles and
unravel the role of plasmonic field enhancement in this process by comparing resonant and …

Nonlinear photoelectron emission from metallic nanotips is explored in the strong-field
regime. The passage between the multiphoton and the optical field emission regimes is …

Surface plasmon–polaritons are electromagnetic waves that propagate along metal–
dielectric interfaces and exist over a wide range of frequencies. They have become popular …

Attosecond science is based on electron dynamics driven by a strong optical electric field
and has evolved beyond its original scope in gas-phase atomic and molecular physics to …

We show that a field emission tip electron source that is triggered with a femtosecond laser
pulse can generate electron pulses shorter than the laser pulse duration (100 fs). The …

When intense laser fields interact with nanoscale targets, strong-field physics meets
plasmonic near-field enhancement and subwavelength localization of light. Photoemission …

A resonant “incoherent” rectification process is presented relying on the excitation of surface
plasmons on a nanostructured metal surface. Excitation of gold and silver films with 800-nm …
