Dynamics of low-energy photoelectrons, generated by multiphoton ionization from near-infrared (NIR) laser pulses, in the presence of intense near single-cycle carrier-envelope phase stable terahertz (THz) pulses, were experimentally investigated, using a velocity-map imaging spectrometer (VMIS). For certain time delays between the NIR and THz pulses, a strong modulation of the photoelectron momentum distribution was observed and attributed to rescattering from the ionic core. During the rescattering process, an additional momentum was transferred to the photoelectrons leading to a higher kinetic energy in the continuum in contrast to directly emitted photoelectrons that are not rescattered. A classical two-step (CTS) model, based on solving classical photoelectron trajectories, indicates that a few photoelectrons reach a distance on the order of 20 nm before they are retracted and rescattered from the ionic core.
