Cross shaped nanoantennas that are designed to carry angular momentum have been fabricated by focused ion beam on single-crystalline gold flake. We show that these nanoantennas can be resonantly excited by femtosecond laser pulses using the emitted electron intensity from individual antennas, as determined by a photoemission electron microscope, as a measure for the plasmonic field enhancement. The resonant wavelength scales with the size of the antennas. The sample is illuminated from the front side at grazing incidence and from the backside at normal incidence. In both geometries the photoemission intensity of some antennas shows an unexpectedly pronounced polarization dependence, which can be explained by the actual shape of the nanoantennas.
