    Using a conventional tabletop mid-infrared laser, we observed optical signals modulated on Ångström length scales. These signatures stem from light emission from tunneling currents flowing between the most frontier atom of a metallic tip and a sample surface and are driven by the oscillating electric field of the laser light.This tunneling-mediated contrast emerges under relatively…
