Sub-femtosecond precision measurement of relative X-ray arrival time for free-electron lasers

Christoph Bostedt, Christoph Peter Hauri

Today's brightest coherent X-ray sources, X-ray free-electron lasers, produce ultrafast X-ray pulses for which full-width at half-maximum durations as short as 3 fs have been measured(1). There has been a marked increase in the popularity of such short pul ...

Theories of Experimentally Observed Excitation Spectra of Square Lattice Antiferromagnets

Bastien Dalla Piazza

The first part of this thesis presents the theoretical study of an anomaly of unknown origin in the excitation spectrum of the Quantumspin-1/2 Heisenberg Square lattice Anti-Ferromagnet. The anomaly manifests itself in Inelastic Neutron Scattering data for ...

Generation of 0.9-mJ THz pulses in DSTMS pumped by a Cr:Mg2SiO4 laser

Christoph Peter Hauri

We report on high-field terahertz transients with 0.9-mJ pulse energy produced in a 400 mm(2) partitioned organic crystal by optical rectification of a 30-mJ laser pulse centered at 1.25 mu m wavelength. The phase-locked single-cycle terahertz pulses cover ...

Mid-infrared optical frequency combs at 2.5 mu m based on crystalline microresonators

Tobias Kippenberg, Albert Schliesser, Tobias Herr

The mid-infrared spectral range (lambda similar to 2-20 mu m) is of particular importance as many molecules exhibit strong vibrational fingerprints in this region. Optical frequency combs-broadband optical sources consisting of equally spaced and mutually ...

A femtosecond fluorescence study of vibrational relaxation and cooling dynamics of UV dyes

Majed Chergui, Andrea Cannizzo, Thomas James Penfold

We present a femtosecond broad-band fluorescence up-conversion study of the vibrational relaxation dynamics of two UV chromophores, 2,5-diphenyloxazole (PPO) and para-terphenyl (pTP), pumped with a large excess of vibrational energy (>2000 cm(-1)). The ban ...

Probing molecular absorption under slow-light propagation using a photonic crystal waveguide

Luc Thévenaz, Isabelle Dicaire

High-resolution infrared absorption spectroscopy of acetylene gas is demonstrated in a dispersion-engineered photonic crystal waveguide under slow-light propagation. Experimental enhancement factors of 0.31 and 1.00 are obtained for TE and TM polarization, ...

Vibrationally bond-selected chemisorption of methane isotopologues on Pt(111) studied by reflection absorption infrared spectroscopy

Rainer Beck, Li Chen, Régis Bisson, Hirokazu Ueta

Reflection absorption infrared spectroscopy (RAIRS) was used to probe for vibrational bond-selectivity in the dissociative chemisorption of three partially deuterated methane isotopologues on a Pt(111) surface. While a combination of incident translational ...

Exciton-assisted optomechanics with suspended carbon nanotubes

Christophe Marcel Georges Galland

We propose a framework for inducing strong optomechanical effects in a suspended carbon nanotube based on deformation potential (DP) exciton–phonon coupling. The excitons are conﬁned using an inhomogeneous axial electric ﬁeld which generates optically acti ...
