Three-electron photon interaction mediated by localized plasmonsPeter-Jan Peters and •Richard Berndt — Institut für Experimentelle und Angewandte Physik, Christian-Albrechts-Universität zu Kiel, 24098 Kiel

The light emission from a scanning tunneling microscope operated on Ag(111) surfaces at 5 K is analyzed from low conductances G to values approaching the conductance quantum. Optical spectra reveal emission due to localized plasmons with photon energies exceeding the applied bias more than twice (h ν > 3 e V). The emission intensity varies in a non-monotonic fashion with G. An empirical model reproduces the scaling of the photon yield and the optical spectra near the thresholds for two-electron and three-electron processes. While some heating of the electron gas occurs, the predominat part of the light emission is due to coherent processes.
