AbstractWe show how a chicane with anomalous dispersion can be used to compress an electron beam into a narrow, high-current, spike by exploiting the intrinsic chirp created by collective effects. We explore the limits of compression in a linearized model and then apply these beams to impulsively pump valence electrons. In the limit of an ultrashort electron beam, the valence electron wave-packet is accelerated so rapidly that the excited state forms an image of the bound state, allowing for unique insight into the structure of the electronic states of a molecule.
