The model is found to successfully reproduce the key features observed in experiment and as such will aid in the development and optimization of future device structures.

Abstract

Recently demonstrated 'light-wells' - free-electron-driven tuneable nanoscale light sources - generate optical photons as electrons travel down a nano-hole through a metal-dielectric multilayer structure. We report here on the application of boundary element modeling methods to the simulation of light-well output characteristics. The model is found to successfully reproduce the key features observed in experiment and as such will aid in the development and optimization of future device structures.
