New Publication “Electrostatic electron mirror in SEM for simultaneous imaging of top and bottom surfaces of a sample”

New Publication “Electrostatic electron mirror in SEM for simultaneous imaging of top and bottom surfaces of a sample”

May 6, 2021 | News Articles

The use of electron mirrors in aberration correction and surface-sensitive microscopy techniques such as low-energy electron microscopy has been established. However, in this work, by implementing an easy to construct, fully electrostatic electron mirror system under...
New Publication “Nanoscale refractory doped titanium nitride field emitters”

New Publication “Nanoscale refractory doped titanium nitride field emitters”

Apr 30, 2021 | News Articles

Refractory materials exhibit high damage tolerance, which is attractive for the creation of nanoscale field-emission electronics and optoelectronics applications that require operation at high peak current densities and optical intensities. Recent results have...
New Publication  “On-chip sampling of optical fields with attosecond resolution”

New Publication “On-chip sampling of optical fields with attosecond resolution”

Apr 15, 2021 | News Articles

We demonstrate an on-chip, optoelectronic device capable of sampling arbitrary, low-energy, near-infrared waveforms under ambient conditions with sub-optical-cycle resolution. Our detector uses field-driven photoemission from resonant nanoantennas to create attosecond...

New Publication  “Impact of DC bias on weak optical-field-driven electron emission in nano-vacuum-gap detectors”

New Publication “Impact of DC bias on weak optical-field-driven electron emission in nano-vacuum-gap detectors”

Feb 26, 2021 | News Articles

In this work, we investigate multiphoton and optical field tunneling emission from metallic surfaces with nanoscale vacuum gaps. Using time-dependent Schrödinger equation (TDSE) simulations, we find that the properties of the emitted photocurrent in such systems can...
