Exciton migration in two-dimensional materials

Excitons play an essential role in the optical response of two-dimensional materials. These are bound states showing up in the band gaps of many-body systems and are conceived as quasiparticles formed by an electron and a hole. By performing real-time simu ...

Attosecond transient absorption spooktroscopy: a ghost imaging approach to ultrafast absorption spectroscopy

Christoph Bostedt, Zhaoheng Guo, Jonas Knurr, Andre Al Haddad, Siqi Li

The recent demonstration of isolated attosecond pulses from an X-ray free-electron laser (XFEL) opens the possibility for probing ultrafast electron dynamics at X-ray wavelengths. An established experimental method for probing ultrafast dynamics is X-ray t ...

Controlling free electrons with optical whispering-gallery modes

Tobias Kippenberg

Free-electron beams are versatile probes of microscopic structure and composition(1,2), and have revolutionized atomic-scale imaging in several fields, from solid-state physics to structural biology(3). Over the past decade, the manipulation and interactio ...

Spin polarization and attosecond time delay in photoemission from solids

Mauro Fanciulli

In the photoemission process electrons are emitted from a solid upon excitation with UV light. From the measurement of their energy and momentum, angle-resolved photoemission spectroscopy (ARPES) allows to reconstruct the electronic properties of the solid ...

Auger-induced charge migration

Christoph Bostedt

Novel perspectives of controlling molecular systems have recently arisen from the possibility of generating attosecond pulses in the ultraviolet regime and tailoring electron dynamics in its natural time scale. The cornerstone mechanism is the so-called ch ...

Demonstration of femtosecond X-ray pump X-ray probe diffraction on protein crystals

Henning Paul-Julius Stahlberg, Christian David

The development of X-ray free-electron lasers (XFELs) has opened the possibility to investigate the ultrafast dynamics of biomacromolecules using X-ray diffraction. Whereas an increasing number of structures solved by means of serial femtosecond crystallog ...

Charge migration and charge transfer in molecular systems

Majed Chergui, Ursula Röthlisberger, Jacques-Edouard Moser, Andrea Cannizzo, Natalie Renuka Banerji, Joël Teuscher, Christopher Alexander Arrell, Pablo Lopez Tarifa, Elisa Liberatore

The transfer of charge at the molecular level plays a fundamental role in many areas of chemistry, physics, biology and materials science. Today, more than 60 years after the seminal work of R. A. Marcus, charge transfer is still a very active field of res ...

Several Semiclassical Approaches to Time-resolved Spectroscopy

Jiri Vanicek

Ultrafast spectroscopy allows molecular dynamics to be resolved on the femtosecond time scale. Whereas such short time scales obviously pose any experimental challenges, they provide an opportunity for semiclassica methods, which are naturally suited for s ...
