Ultrafast transmission electron microscope for studying the dynamics of the processes induced by femtosecond laser beams
QUANTUM ELECTRONICS(2017)
Abstract
We have developed an ultrafast transmission electron microscope for studying dynamic processes in samples excited by femtosecond laser pulses and for probing transient processes occurring under irradiation by a pulsed(similar to 7ps) photoelectron beam with an adjustable delay with respect to the excitation pulse. A 75-keV photoelectron beam is formed using a silver photocathode irradiated by a femtosecond laser beam. This microscope is shown to have a high spatial resolution in the photoelectron regime: nanoscale in the imaging regime and atomic in the electron diffraction regime. It is used for experimental observation of ultrafast interaction of a laser-induced electron cloud with a pulsed photoelectron beam. Using this effect, a method of spatial and temporal alignment of excitation laser and probe electron pulsed beams on a sample is experimentally implemented.
