A conventional free-electron laser is useful but large, driven by a beam with many relativistic electrons. Although, recently, keV electron beams have been used to excite broadband radiation from material chips, there remains quest for chip-size capable of emitting coherent radiation. Unfortunately, those emitters microscopes or dielectric accelerators usually deliver small current discrete moving electrons separated distance few tens microns. To envisage as powerful research tool, we study...

One important factor which determines efficiency of loading cold atoms into an optical dipole trap from a magneto-optical is the distance between centers. By studying this for various depths $(2--110\phantom{\rule{0.3em}{0ex}}\mathrm{mK})$ we find that optimum loading, longitudinal displacements up to $15\phantom{\rule{0.3em}{0ex}}\mathrm{mm}$ are necessary. An explanation observation presented and compared with other work simple analytical formula derived

The question of suitability transfer matrix description electrons traversing grating-type dielectric laser acceleration (DLA) structures is addressed. It shown that although considerations lead to interesting insights, the basic properties DLA cells cannot be described by a matrix. A more general notion function simple and useful tool for formulating problems particle dynamics in DLA. As an example, focusing structure proposed which works simultaneously all electron phases.

Abstract A thick palladium layer (∼5 nm) is deposited onto a curved tantalum surface. The system submitted to several annealing cycles. Structural changes within 0–5 nm below the surface are observed using Field Ion Microscopy. At 800 K, an atomic intermixing of adsorbate and substrate observed. Pd atoms detected first five layers Ta substrate. 1100 multilayer alloy formed at surface, oriented epitaxially with respect Ta{100} planes.

We consider radiation generated by an electron travelling parallel to a planar rectangular silicon grating: Smith-Purcell the vacuum side, internal into dielectric, and Cherenkov dielectric. Internal dominates over other two mechanisms in range where conventional is forbidden. This observation may lead improved design of contactless particle beam monitors.

We perform detailed numerical simulations of field ion microscopy images faceted crystals and compare them with experimental observations. In contrast to the case a smooth surface, for topography we find extreme deformations image. Local magnification is highly inhomogeneous may vary by an order magnitude: from 0.64 6.7. Moreover, anisotropy at point located on facet edge reach factor 10.

The notions of acceleration gradient and deflection are generalized to phasor quantities (complex-valued functions) in the context dielectric laser (DLA). It is shown that electromagnetic forces imparted on a near-resonant particle traversing unit cell grating-type DLA can be conveniently described by gradients. A simple formulation Panofsky–Wenzel theorem terms gradients given. all transfer properties derived from single, complex-valued function, gradient.
