Femtosecond single-electron diffraction
Ultrafast electron diffraction allows the tracking of atomic motion in real time, but space charge effects within dense electron packets are a problem for temporal resolution. Here, we report on time-resolved pump-probe diffraction using femtosecond single-electron pulses that are free from intra-pulse Coulomb interactions over the entire trajectory from the source to the detector. Sufficient a...
متن کاملFemtosecond Electron Guns for Ultrafast Electron Diffraction*
The photocathode radio-frequency (RF) gun is a powerful electron source to generate a high-brightness femtosecond electron beam with energies of 1~3 MeV. The RF gun based relativistic ultrafast electron diffraction (UED) is a promising new technique that has the potential to probe directly structural changes at the atomic scale with sub-100 fs temporal resolution. In this paper, we analyze the ...
متن کاملFemtosecond electron diffraction: 'making the molecular movie'.
Femtosecond electron diffraction (FED) has the potential to directly observe transition state processes. The relevant motions for this barrier-crossing event occur on the hundred femtosecond time-scale. Recent advances in the development of high-flux electron pulse sources with the required time resolution and sensitivity to capture barrier-crossing processes are described in the context of att...
متن کاملSingle-shot femtosecond electron diffraction with laser-accelerated electrons: experimental demonstration of electron pulse compression.
We report the first experimental demonstration of longitudinal compression of laser-accelerated electron pulses. Accelerated by a femtosecond laser pulse with an intensity of 10¹⁸ W/cm², an electron pulse with an energy of around 350 keV and a relative momentum spread of about 10⁻² was compressed to a 500-fs pulse at a distance of about 50 cm from the electron source by using a magnetic pulse c...
متن کاملFemtosecond Photocathode Electron Gun for Time- Resolved Electron Diffraction
Ultrafast time-resolved electron diffraction based on a photocathode rf electron gun is being developed in Osaka University to reveal the hidden dynamics of intricate molecular and atomic processes in materials. The photocathode rf gun generates a femtosecond-bunch electron beam by femtosecond laser driving. The transverse emittance, bunch length and energy spread were measured. The growths of ...
