We directly measure by femtosecond time-resolved x-ray diffraction the E$_g$ symmetry coherent phonon excited in bismuth by strong optical excitation. The magnitude of the E$_g$ mode observed is 0.2 pm peak-to-peak, compared against the 2.7…
Using first principles, all-electron calculations and dynamical simulations we study the behavior of the A_1g and E_g coherent phonons induced in Bi by intense laser pulses. We determine the potential landscapes in the laser heated material…
Femtosecond spectroscopy is applied to study transient electronic and lattice processes in bismuth. Components with relaxation times of 1 ps, 7 ps and ~ 1 ns are detected in the photoinduced reflectivity response of the crystal. To…
In order to determine the role of non-thermal transport of hot carriers which is decisive for the dissipation of energy in condensed matter we performed time-resolved broadband femtosecond transient reflectivity measurements on $7-197…
In Peierls-distorted materials, photoexcitation leads to a strongly coupled transient response between structural and electronic degrees of freedom, always measured independently of each other. Here we use transient reflectivity in the…
An ultrafast atomic motion of a photo-induced coherent phonon of bismuth at low temperatures was directly observed with time-resolved x-ray diffraction. A cryostat with a window that is transparent to both optical lasers and x-rays enabled…
We investigate the temporal evolution of the electronic states at the bismuth (111) surface by means of time and angle resolved photoelectron spectroscopy. The binding energy of bulk-like bands oscillates with the frequency of the $A_{1g}$…
We measure the oscillations of a standing wave of phonons in a Bose-Einstein condensate, thus obtaining the dispersion relation. We present the technique of short Bragg pulses, which stimulates the standing wave. The subsequent oscillations…
We investigate the ultrafast response of the bismuth (111) surface by means of time resolved photoemission spectroscopy. The direct visualization of the electronic structure allows us to gain insights on electron-electron and…
We observe anharmonic decay of the photoexcited coherent A1g phonon in bismuth to points in the Brillouin zone where conservation of momentum and energy are satisfied for three-phonon scattering. The decay of a coherent phonon can be…
We present time-resolved photoemission experiments from a peculiar bismuth surface, Bi(114). The strong one-dimensional character of this surface is reflected in the Fermi surface, which consists of spin-polarized straight lines. Our…
Radio-frequency compressed ultrafast electron diffraction has been used to probe the coherent and incoherent coupling of impulsive electronic excitation at 1.55 eV (800 nm) to optical and acoustic phonon modes directly from the perspective…
We introduce a thermodynamical model based on the two-temperature approach in order to fully understand the dynamics of the coherent A$_{1g}$ phonon in laser-excited bismuth. Using this model, we simulate the time evolution of (111) Bragg…
We investigate the effects of crystal lattice vibrations on the dispersion of plasmons. The loss function of the homogeneous electron gas (HEG) in two and three dimensions is evaluated numerically in presence of electronic coupling to an…
We use numerical simulations to study the flow of a bidisperse mixture of athermal, frictionless, soft-core two dimensional spherocylinders driven in uniform steady state shear. Energy dissipation is via a viscous drag with respect to a…
We examine the interplay between electron correlations and phonons in an Anderson-Holstein impurity model with an Einstein phonon. When the phonons are slow compared to charge fluctuations (frequency $\omega_0 \ll U/2$, the onsite Coulomb…
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…
The optical properties of the superconducting single crystal Rb$_{0.8}$Fe$_{1.68}$Se$_2$ with $T_{c}$ $\simeq$ 31 K have been measured over a wide frequency range in the $ab$ plane. We found that the optical conductivity is dominated by a…
We determine experimentally the excited-state interatomic forces in photoexcited bismuth. The forces are obtained by a constrained least-squares fit of the excited-state dispersion obtained by femtosecond time-resolved x-ray diffuse…
Structural modifications in InP(111) due to 1.5 MeV implantation of Sb have been characterized using first order and second order Raman spectroscopy. With both Longitudinal Optical (LO) and Transverse Optical (TO) modes allowed for…
