Abstract

One-photon and two-photon electron emission spectra from vapour deposited rough and smooth Ag films are compared. Photoemission from rough films is strongly enhanced due to the participation of localized surface plasmons (LSP). A theory is outlined that successfully estimates the enhancement and predicts that LSP-initiated photoemission would involve momentum non-conserving transitions.
