Impulsive excitation of excitons or color centers by high-energy electron beams results in photon bunching in cathodoluminescence microscopy, which can be used to study excited-state dynamics, excitation and emission efficiency of nanoscale materials, and interactions with nanophotonic cavities.
The impulsive excitation of ensembles of excitons or color centers by a high-energy electron beam results in the observation of photon bunching in the second-order correlation function of the cathodoluminescence generated by those emitters. Photon bunching in cathodoluminescence microscopy can be used to resolve the excited-state dynamics and the excitation and emission efficiency of nanoscale materials, and it can be used to probe interactions between emitters and nanophotonic cavities. Here, we report substantial changes in the measured bunching induced by indirect electron interactions (with indirect electron excitation inducing $g<^>{2}(0)$ values approaching $10<^>4$). This result is critical to the interpretation of $g<^>{2}(\tau)$ in cathodoluminescence microscopies, and, more importantly, it provides a foundation for the nanoscale characterization of optical properties in beam-sensitive materials.
