Johannes Schötz presents the first measurements of optical
electro-magnetic near-fields around nanostructures with
subcycle-resolution. The ability to measure and understand
light-matter interactions on the nanoscale is an important
component for the development of light-wave-electronics, the
control and steering of electron dynamics with the frequency of
light, which promises a speed-up by several orders of magnitude
compared to conventional electronics. The experiments presented
here on metallic nanotips, widely used in experiments and
applications, do not only demonstrate the feasibility of
attosecond streaking as a unique tool for fundamental studies of
ultrafast nanophotonics but also represent a first important step
towards this goal.
