English abstract:
Attosecond physics, centering on the control of electronic matter waves within a single cycle of the optical laserīs driving field, has led to tremendously successful experiments with atoms and molecules in the gas phase. We show that pivotal phenomena such as elastic electron rescattering at the parent matter, a strong carrier-envenlope phase sensitivity and electronic matter wave interference also show up in few-cycle laser driven electron emission from nanometric sharp metal tips. Furthermore, we utilize spectral signatures to measure the enhanced near-field with a spatial resolution of 1 nm.
