Near-field microscopy has prompted a revolution in nano-videography of quantum systems on subcycle timescales and with a spatial resolution down to ∼10 nm. Yet, the nanoscale geometry of the tip apex has prevented access to atomic resolution. We present a fundamentally new approach which brings all-optical microscopy to the atomic scale while retaining subcycle temporal resolution for the first time, by exploiting extreme nonlinearities within tip-confined evanescent light fields. We demonstrate the capabilities of this Near-field Optical Tunnelling Emission (NOTE) microscope by imaging nanometre-sized packing defects on the surface of gold, alongside tracing the subcycle quantum flow of electrons between the scanning tip and a semiconducting van der Waals trilayer in real-time. NOTE microscopy is not only compatible with insulating samples, where no rectified currents can flow but also enables us to combine all-optical subcycle spectroscopy with atomic resolution. In doing so, NOTE provides direct access to atomic scale quantum light-matter interaction and dynamics on their natural length and timescales.
