The present status and development of strong-field nano-optics, an emerging field of
nonlinear optics, is discussed. A nonperturbative regime of light-matter interactions is …

In the past 20 years, we have reached a broad understanding of many light-driven
phenomena in nanoscale systems. The temporal dynamics of the excited states are instead …

Recently two emerging areas of research, attosecond and nanoscale physics, have started
to come together. Attosecond physics deals with phenomena occurring when ultrashort laser …

Field emission of electrons underlies great advances in science and technology, ranging
from signal processing at ever higher frequencies to imaging of the atomic-scale structure of …

The milestones of attosecond optics research in the last 15 years are briefly reviewed, and
the latest trends in applications in gaseous and condensed matter are introduced. An …

Attosecond science is based on electron dynamics driven by a strong optical electric field
and has evolved beyond its original scope in gas-phase atomic and molecular physics to …

The search for electron sources with simultaneous optimal spatial and temporal resolution
has become an area of intense activity for a wide variety of applications in the emerging …

The scattering of electrons in dielectric materials is central to laser nanomachining, light-
driven electronics and radiation damage,,. Here, we demonstrate real-time access to …

Light-field-driven processes occurring under conditions far beyond the diffraction limit of the
light can be manipulated by harnessing spatiotemporally tunable near fields. A tailor-made …

When intense laser fields interact with nanoscale targets, strong-field physics meets
plasmonic near-field enhancement and subwavelength localization of light. Photoemission …
