摘要
Laser-triggered electron emission from sharp metal tips has been demonstrated in recent years as a high brightness, ultrafast electron source. Its possible applications range from ultrafast electron microscopy to laser-based particle accelerators to electron interferometry. The ultrafast nature of the emission process allows for the sampling of an instantaneous radio frequency (RF) voltage that has been applied to a field emitter. For proof-ofconcept, we use an RF signal derived from our laser's repetition rate, mapping a 9.28 GHz signal in 22.4 fs steps with 28 mv accuracy.
