Picosecond and femtosecond X-ray absorption spectroscopy is used to probe the changes of the solvent shell structure upon electron abstraction of aqueous iodide using an ultrashort laser pulse. The transient L-1,L-3 edge EXAFS at 50 ps time delay points to ...
This thesis deals with the supramolecular organization of chiral aminoacids and dipeptides on metal surfaces. The emergence of homochirality in biomolecular systems is one of the most intriguing open questions of Nature. The self-assembly and amplification ...
Spectromicroscopy with the imaging technique of X-ray photoelectron emission microscopy (X-PEEM) is a microchemical analytical tool installed in many synchrotron radiation laboratories, and which is finding application in diverse fields of research. The me ...
Solvation dynamics, the process of solvent reorganization upon electronic excitation of a solute, is central to our understanding chemical reactions in liquid phase. Ultrafast optical studies of solvation dynamics have so far been carried out on polyatomic ...
CsI thin film photocathodes of 600 nm thickness deposited on polished Al surfaces by resistive evaporation technique were studied by angle-resolved X-ray photoelectron spectroscopy (ARXPS), before and after UV-irradiation under vacuum. It is shown that the ...
We introduce an approach to investigate thermal effects on the photoelectron spectra of small clusters. By combining first-principles molecular dynamics and a simplified scheme to account for final-state relaxation effects, we obtain averaged excitation sp ...
Using a combined experimental and theoretical approach, we address C 1s core-level shifts in amorphous carbon. Experimental results are obtained by x-ray photoelectron spectroscopy (XPS) and electron-energy-loss spectroscopy (EELS) on thin-film samples of ...
Using a first-principles approach, we investigate the origin of the fine structure in Si 2p photoelectron spectra at the Si(100)-(2x1) surface and at the Si(100)-SiO2 interface. Calculated and measured shifts show very good agreement for both systems. By u ...
The primary damage formation in Mo is investigated using molecular dynamics (MD) simulation with embedded-defect (ED) and embedded-atom method (EAM) interatomic potentials. The former is similar in spirit to the latter but includes an approximate treatment ...
