The effect of the excitation wavelength on the charge recombination (CR) dynamics of several donor−acceptor complexes (DACs) composed of benzene derivatives as donors and of tetracyanoethylene or pyromellitic dianhydride as acceptors has been investigated ...
The photocycle of aqueous ruthenium-(trisbipyridine) [Ru(bpy)3]2+ was studied under high laser excitation intensities and high sample concentrations with picosecond resolved x-ray absorption spectroscopy. In a pump-probe scheme a femtosecond laser pulse pr ...
The relaxor ferroelectric PbMg1/3Nb2/3O3 (PMN) is investigated by means of dielectric and Fourier transform far infrared transmission spectroscopy in ,the frequency range from 10 kHz to 15 THz at temperatures between 20 and 900 K using mostly thin films on ...
We develop a dynamical theory for the optical injection of charge and spin current originating from the interferences between two coherent laser pulses of frequencies omega and 2omega. Multiband Bloch equations which include one- and two-photon interband t ...
We present a setup which allows the measurement of time-resolved x-ray absorption spectra with picosecond temporal resoln. on liq. samples at the Advanced Light Source at Lawrence Berkeley National Labs. The temporal resoln. is limited by the pulse width o ...
We present a review of wave packet dynamics in different systems and stress their relation to information on the ultrafast structural changes. We show how dynamical information is obtained from ultrafast optical pump-probe studies on structural changes in ...
A review. Ultrafast x-ray techniques using diffraction and absorption are discussed with an emphasis on the absorption techniques. Ultrafast x-ray sources and detectors for use in x-ray absorption spectroscopy are also reviewed. [on SciFinder (R)] ...
The propagation of high-power femtosecond light pulses in lithium niobate crystals (LiNbO3) is investigated experimentally and theoretically in collinear pump-probe transmission experiments. It is found within a wide intensity range that a strong decrease ...
We have observed the filamentation of optical pulses in carbon disulfide(CS2) using femtosecond time-resolved optical polarigraphy(FTOP)1. A pump-probe setup is used to capture the propagation of a 150 femtosecond laser pulse in CS2. The probe pulse propag ...
Femtosecond pump pulses are strongly attenuated in lithium niobate owing to two-photon absorption; the relevant nonlinear coefficient beta(p) ranges from similar to 3.5 cm/GW for lambda(p) = 388 nm to similar to 0.1 cm/GW for 514 nm. In collinear pump-prob ...
