(a) ITR-PEEM of the four localized plasmons on the Ag grating framed.[50] The delay time between the pump and probe pulses (τd) is advanced from −0.33 fs to 40.69 fs or 14×2π 3012×2π in terms of the optical phase of the carrier light (400 nm) with an increment step of 0.33 fs or 12π . All four dots oscillate in-phase with the field during the optical excitation by the pump pulse ( 14×2π 512×2π ). (b) ITR-PEEM movie frames of the Ag film excited with phase-locked pump–probe pulse pairs.[54] (c) Slit width dependence of the polarization grating pattern.[55] (d) Representative map of sample emission upon excitation of plasmons in an Ag nanowire.[57] (e) Au step and Au nanodot excitation via SPP coupling recorded in real time.[58] (f) Selected TR-MP-PEEM images at different phase delays/delay times for an array of Au nanorods.[59] (g) PEEM detection and simulation results of the SR-SPP nanofocus process.[60]
