Spontaneous and stimulated electron–photon interactions in nanoscale plasmonic near fields

Abstract The interplay between free electrons, light, and matter offers unique prospects for space, time, and energy resolved optical material characterization, structured light generation, and quantum information processing. Here, we study the nanoscale features of spontaneous and stimulated electr...
