To date, quantum sources in the ultraviolet (UV) spectral region have been obtained only in semiconductor quantum dots. Color centers in wide bandgap materials may represent a …
Following optical excitations' life span from creation to decay into photons is crucial in understanding materials photophysics. Macroscopically, this is studied using optical …
Plasmon modes of the exact same individual gold nanoprisms are investigated through combined nanometer-resolved electron energy-loss spectroscopy (EELS) and …

We report on the development of an ultrafast Transmission Electron Microscope based on a cold field emission source which can operate in either DC or ultrafast mode. Electron …
Cathodoluminescence (CL) is a powerful tool for the investigation of optical properties of materials. In recent years, its combination with scanning transmission electron microscopy …
On August 22, 1879, in a lecture to the British Association for the Advancement of Science, 1 Sir William Crookes announced that “radiant matter”(his term for the electrons emerging from …

We have measured the second order correlation function [g (2)(τ)] of the cathodoluminescence intensity resulting from the excitation by fast electrons of defect …
Imaging localized plasmon modes in noble-metal nanoparticles is of fundamental importance for applications such as ultrasensitive molecular detection. Here, we …
