Light-induced electron emission from polymethylphenyl siloxane oils

Spontaneous Hot-Electron Light Emission from Electron-Fed Optical Antennas.

Nanoscale electronics and photonics are among the most promising research areas providing functional nanocomponents for data transfer and signal processing. By adopting metal-based optical antennas as a disruptive technological vehicle, we demonstrate that these two device-generating technologies can be interfaced to create an electronically driven self-emitting unit. This nanoscale plasmonic t...

Laser-induced ultrafast electron emission from a field emission tip

We show that a fi eld 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 emission process is sensitive to a power law of the laser intensity, which supports an emission mechanism based on multiphoton absorption followed by over-the-barrier emission. Observed continuous transitions betw...

Electron Emission from Surfaces Induced by Slow Ions and Atoms

Electron emission from carbon foils induced by keV ions

We have measured yields of electrons emitted in the forward and backward directions from ultrathin carbon foils due to 10–100 keV atomic and molecular projectiles. In general, electron yields are higher in the forward than in the backward direction. Their behavior with projectile type and energy can be explained by a competition of a forward peaked angular distribution of initial ionization eve...
