Abstract

Ultrahigh spatial resolution of two-photon photoelectron images (as high as 3 nm, which is the best value that has been achieved to date in photoelectron microscopy with spatial resolution) is obtained when silicon nanotips are irradiated by the second harmonic of a pulsed femtosecond Ti: sapphire laser. In addition, the absolute value of the two-photon external photoeffect coefficient is measured.
