Subject: [EBEAM2024 Summer School] Pre-registrations for EBEAM2024 school on nano-optics with free electrons are open!

Dear colleagues

Following the great success of its first edition in 2022, it is a great pleasure to announce the Second School on Nano-optics with Free Electrons (eBEAM2024) to be held on 1st-13rd September 2024 in Aussois, french Alps.

Pre-registration opens 15th March 2024

Pre-registration is open from 15/03/2024 until 15/05/2024. The candidates will provide a CV, a motivation letter and, for Ph D students and Post Docs, a recommendation letter from their supervisor. Candidatures will be examined shortly and decision will be sent by June 1st, to allow enough time for candidates to prepare their travel.

Further information can be found on the ebeam2024.org website and in the attached circular.

Electron optics and spectroscopy instrumentation developments in the last 20 years have considerably widened the range of applicability of electron beam techniques to nano-optics. Single atoms imaging capabilities, meV beam energy spread, electron wavefunction shaping, fs pump probe experiments, and efficient light coupling to and from samples are a reality. This has enabled the study of a variety of excitations (plasmons, phonons, excitons...) at extreme spatial, temporal and spectral resolutions. Therefore, new theories have blossomed to explain exciting results coming from electron energy-loss spectroscopy (EELS), cathodoluminescence (CL) and photon induced near-filed electron microscopy (PINEM), and central concepts of nanooptics or quantum optics have been shown to be applicable to electron-based spectroscopies. We aim to spread knowledge about these new concepts and techniques and to foment the interest of a new generation of academics in this blooming field.

We have conserved the successful lectures on the basics of electron instrumentation and spectroscopies;  electron-matter-light interaction; electron spectroscopies of optical material; time, space, and quantum coherence in electron spectroscopy; advanced EELS and CL and photoemission, and complemented them with an introduction to nano-optics, a lecture on ab-initio calculations for optical excitation and optoelectronics with free electron beams.
On popular demand from the first edition, simulations and data analysis hands-on tutorials as well as state-of-the-art electron spectroscopies technique demonstrations now complement these more fundamental lectures.

The school is aimed at Ph.Ds, Post Docs and any researchers willing to dive in this new field. Due to the limited number of places (80), applicants will be selected with a CV and motivation letter. A series of 11 lectures lasting 3 hours (broken by a 30 min. pause) will be given. Each lecturer is asked to give in addition a 30  min. seminar on their own research topic in addition to the lecture. 2 posters sessions will be organized.


We hope to see you in Aussois soon!

For the organisation committee, L. Tizei & M. Kociak
