Dependence of (a) photoelectron collection efficiency (CE), (b) energy spread (ΔE50), and (c) temporal spread (Δt50) on LaB6 position relative to the Wehnelt aperture (Ztip) for the single-electron (green squares) and burst (red circles) modes. (d) Dependence of the statistical temporal spread for the single-electron mode on Ztip for full, incident laser-pulse durations of 280 fs (blue triangles), 80 fs (purple inverted triangles), and 10 fs (light-blue diamonds). The key in (a) corresponds to (a)–(c), while the key in (d) is specific to that panel. The gray, dashed vertical line at Ztip = 350 μm denotes a position at which the single-electron CE is 100%.
