Infrared (IR) reflectivity spectra of nominally pure Pb(Zr1-xTix)O-3 ceramics with different Ti/Zr concentration (x = 0.42-0.58) were measured and evaluated, along with the time-domain terahertz transmittance spectra in the temperature range 10 K-900 K. Th ...
The paper brings results of far infrared transmission studies of relaxor ferroelectric PbMg1/3Nb2/3O3 and PbSc1/2Ta1/2O3 thin films performed at temperatures between 10K and 900K. The spectra clearly show that the lowest-frequency polar optic phonon soften ...
The terahertz (THz) excitations in the quantum spin-ladder system Sr14Cu24O41 have been determined along the c axis using THz time-domain, Raman, and infrared spectroscopy. Low-frequency infrared and Raman active modes are observed above and below the char ...
The present work is devoted to the study of the dynamics of multi-photon processes in semiconductor heterostructures. A time-dependent description is important for understanding in detail the transient response of semiconductors excited by ultrashort optic ...
Temperature dependences of the optic phonons in PbSc1/2Ta1/2O3 (PST) sol-gel films deposited on sapphire substrates were studied by means of Fourier transform far-infrared transmission spectroscopy in the temperature range of 20-900 K. Four films displayin ...
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 ...
Although invented for precision measurements of single atomic transitions, frequency combs have also become a versatile tool for broadband spectroscopy in recent years. Here, we present a novel and simple approach for broadband spectroscopy, combining the ...
We describe an advanced setup for time-resolved x-ray absorption fine structure (XAFS) spectroscopy with picosecond temporal resoln. It combines an intense femtosecond laser source synchronized to the x-ray pulses delivered into the microXAS beamline of th ...
Accurate detn. of the transient electronic structures, which drive photochem. reactions, is crucial in chem. and biol. The authors report the detection of transient chem. changes on the picosecond time scale by x-ray-absorption near-edge structure of photo ...
Some redox-active ionic liquids, organic amorphous solids containing electron-donating moieties, and conductive polymers can efficiently transport positive electrical charges. These hole-conducting media find increasing applications in unconventional solar ...
