We explore the phonon dynamics of thin films of the topological insulator material Bi2Se2Te using ultrafast pump-probe spectroscopy. The time resolved differential reflectivity of the films exhibit fast and slow oscillations. We have given…

We report on a >100-fold enhancement of Raman responses from Bi2Se3 thin films if laser photon energy switches from 2.33 eV (532 nm) to 1.58 eV (785 nm), which is due to direct optical coupling to Dirac surface states (SS) at the resonance…

Raman measurements of a Fano-type surface phonon mode associated with Dirac surface states (SS) in Bi2Se3 topological insulator thin films allowed an unambiguous determination of the electron-phonon coupling strength in Dirac SS as a…

Using $\approx$40 fs ultrashort laser pulses, we investigate the picosecond acoustic response from a prototypical phase change material, thin Ge$_{2}$Sb$_{2}$Te$_{5}$ (GST) films with various thicknesses. After excitation with a 1.53…

Ultrafast carrier relaxation in the 2D topological insulator (TI) Bi2Se3 [gapped Dirac surface states (SS)] and how it inherits ultrafast relaxation in the 3D TI Bi2Se3 (gapless Dirac SS) remains a challenge for developing new…

We Investigate the ultrafast carrier, coherent acoustic phonons (CAPs), and acoustic strain pulse dynamics in topological insulator BiSbTe1.5Se1.5 (BSTS) thin films of varying thickness using degenerate pump-probe reflection spectroscopy.…

Transient reflectivity measurements of thin films, ranging from 6 to 40 nm in thickness, of the topological insulator Bi2Se3 revealed a strong dependence of the carrier relaxation time on the film thickness. For thicker films the relaxation…

We report time- and angle-resolved photoemission spectroscopy measurements on the topological insulator Bi2Se3. We observe oscillatory modulations of the electronic structure of both the bulk and surface states at a frequency of 2.23 THz…

Density Functional Theory (DFT) calculations not only allow to predict the vibrational and optical properties of solids but also to understand and disentangle the mechanisms playing a key role in the generation of coherent optical phonons.…

Ultrafast carrier dynamics in the topological insulator Bi2Se3 have recently been intensively studied using a variety of techniques. However, we are not aware of any successful experiments exploiting transient absorption (TA) spectroscopy…

The class of layered 3D-topological insulators have shown intriguingly anomalous temperature dependence in their thermal expansion coefficients. It was proposed that stacking faults are the origin of the observed anomalous thermal…

Ultrathin FeSe films grown on SrTiO$_{3}$ substrates are a recent milestone in atomic material engineering due to their important role in understanding unconventional superconductivity in Fe-based materials. Using femtosecond time- and…

Individual relaxation dynamics of electrons and holes in optically pumped semiconductors is rarely observed due to their overlap. Here we report the individual dynamics of long-lived (~200 mks) holes observed at room temperature in a 10 nm…

Carrier and phonon dynamics in Bi2Se3 crystals are studied by a spatially resolved ultrafast pump-probe technique. Pronounced oscillations in differential reflection are observed with two distinct frequencies, and are attributed to coherent…

We report on the low-frequency current fluctuations and electronic noise in thin-films made of bismuth selenide topological insulators. The films were prepared via the graphene-like mechanical exfoliation and used as the current conducting…

Low-energy collective electronic excitations exhibiting sound-like linear dispersion have been intensively studied both experimentally and theoretically for a long time. However, coherent acoustic plasmon modes appearing in time-domain…

We observe pronounced oscillations in differential reflectivity of 9 nm and 60 nm BaFe\textsubscript{2}As\textsubscript{2} (Ba-122) thin films using ultrafast optical spectroscopy. Our studies show that the oscillations result from…

We report an observation of coherent phonons of $E_g^1$, $E_u^1$, $A_{1g}^1$, and $E_g^2$ symmetry generated in a single-crystal film of $Bi_2Se_3$ by an intense single-cycle THz pulse. The atomic vibrations reveal themselves through…

Ultrahigh-frequency acoustic-phonon resonators usually require atomically flat interfaces to avoid phonon scattering and dephasing, leading to expensive fabrication processes, such as molecular beam epitaxy. In contrast, mesoporous thin…
