The rotational echo response of molecules is found to strongly depend on the delay between the two ultrashort laser pulses, as opposed to two-level systems. We study this dependence experimentally and theoretically and show that by…
Excitons, Coulomb-driven bound states of electrons and holes, are typically composed of integer charges. However, in bilayer systems influenced by charge fractionalization, a more exotic form of interlayer exciton can emerge, where pairing…
