This PhD project explores how optical metasurfaces can be used to control quantum electron wavepackets in an ultrafast electron microscopy setting. The work focuses on the interaction between high-energy electrons and extreme light fields inside a scanning electron microscope, using photon-induced near-field electron microscopy (PINEM) to study how confined optical near fields exchange energy with a pulsed electron beam. You will develop specially designed non-local metasurfaces built from struc...
