Probing the coupling between a doublon excitation and the charge-density wave in TaS2 by ultrafast optical spectroscopy

Helmuth Berger, Arnaud Magrez, Ahmad Odeh, Fabrizio Carbone, Andreas Helmut Christian Mann, Edoardo Baldini

Recently, the switching between the different charge-ordered phases of 1T-TaS2 has been probed by ultrafast techniques, revealing unexpected phenomena such as "hidden" metastable states and peculiar photoexcited charge patterns. Here, we apply broadband pu ...

Ultrafast electronic and vibrational relaxations in mixed-ligand dithione-dithiolato Ni, Pd, and Pt complexes

Majed Chergui, Frank van Mourik, Andrea Cannizzo, Ahmad Odeh

Ultrafast excited-state dynamics of planar Pt, Pd, and Ni dithione-dithiolato complexes were investigated by transient absorption spectroscopy on the femtosecond-picosecond timescale. All studied complexes show a common photobehaviour, although individual ...

Coupling of a high-energy excitation to superconducting quasiparticles in a cuprate from coherent charge fluctuation spectroscopy

Majed Chergui, Ahmad Odeh, Fabrizio Carbone, Andreas Helmut Christian Mann, Mariateresa Scarongella

Dynamical information on spin degrees of freedom of proteins or solids can be obtained by NMR and electron spin resonance. A technique with similar versatility for charge degrees of freedom and their ultrafast correlations could move the understanding of s ...

Investigating pairing interactions with coherent charge fluctuation spectroscopy

Majed Chergui, Ahmad Odeh, Fabrizio Carbone, Andreas Helmut Christian Mann

It has been recently demonstrated that a pump pulse can generate coherent charge fluctuations in a superconductor through a stimulated Raman process [Mansart, et al., Proc. Natl. Acad. Sci. USA 110, 4539 (2013)]. Here, we present a tutorial review of the b ...

Nanostructuring and lattice dynamics of materials by femtosecond lasers

Ahmad Odeh

Physically, the colour of an object is a complex result of its intrinsic surface properties, its transmission properties and its emission properties, all of which contribute to the mix of wavelengths in the light leaving the surface of the object. Structur ...
