Spatio-temporal coupling controlled laser for electron acceleration

A long-standing challenge for on-chip dielectric laser-based accelerators is to bridge the gap between nonrelativistic and relativistic regimes. Here, an all-optical acceleration scheme is proposed that maximises the electron-field interaction length, and hence the acceleration, by spatio-temporal p...

description A long-standing challenge for on-chip dielectric laser-based accelerators is to bridge the gap between nonrelativistic and relativistic regimes. Here, an all-optical acceleration scheme is proposed that maximises the electron-field interaction length, and hence the acceleration, by spatio-temporal pulse shaping.
