Deskripsi

Photon acceleration, which can be used to generate tunable high harmonic radiation, typically requires high-intensity lasers and long propagation distances. Here, Shcherbakov et al. show efficient photon acceleration at low power input power from a semiconductor metasurface, less than a micron thin.
