S05 - Attosecond photoemission from metallic nanotips and surfaces

Project description

In project S05, we will use sub-femtosecond optical pulses to study the strong field photoemission in nanotips and to generate and measure attosecond electron pulses. Aiming at electron energies within the applicability range of low-energy electron diffraction we will explore the possibility of using these pulses to push the frontiers of time-resolved electron microscopy into the attosecond domain. Experiment and theory will join forces to unravel the role of collective, many-particle, and quantum effects in the physics of the strong-field interaction.
