Harnessing Plasmonic Interference for Nanoscale Ultrafast Electron Sources

A Kachwala, MM Rizi, CM Pierce, D Filippetto… - Physical Review Letters, 2024 - APS
In this Letter we demonstrate the use of plasmonic focusing in conjunction with nonlinear
photoemission to develop geometrically flat nanoscale electron sources with less than 40 …
