We report on a novel approach to measure the phase relaxation length and femtosecond lifetime of hot quasiparticles on metal surfaces. A 4 K scanning tunneling microscope has been used to study the spatial decay of interference patterns in the local densit ...
The temperature-dependent damping of quantum-mechanical interference patterns from surface-state electrons scattering off steps on Ag(111) and Cu(111) has been studied using scanning tunneling microscopy (STM) and spectroscopy in the temperature range 3,5- ...
To better characterize a permanent modifier based on iridium deposited on zirconium or tungsten treated platforms of transversely heated graphite atomizer, and to gain addnl. information about its chem. behavior directed to an eventual further optimization ...
The role of Coulomb scattering is studied in the coherent transients of strongly driven exciton resonances in semiconductor quantum wells. Coulomb scattering is treated within the second Born approximation and the light-induced dressing of the electron-hol ...
Dispersion relations of the s-p derived surface state on (111) surfaces of silver and copper have been measured using low-temperature scanning tunneling microscopy and spectroscopy. For silver as well as for copper we find a significant deviation from a pa ...
We exploited resonant photoemission at the Ce 4d --> 4f absorption edge to investigate the Ce 4f states in CePd3. High resolution spectra reveal, near the Fermi level, the characteristic fine structure of intermediate valence Ce compounds. The spectral lin ...
Ag(111) surface state electrons have been confined in symmetric and asymmetric Fabry-Perot resonators formed by two atomically parallel step edges. The local density of states in the resonators has been measured by means of low-temperature scanning tunneli ...
Photoemission investigations of quasi-one dimensional materials reveal the unconventional electronic properties of these systems. The normal state spectra are incompatible with a Fermi liquid description, and exhibit features consistent with the Luttinger ...
We discuss a novel approach to measure the electron phase-relaxation length and femtosecond lifetimes at surfaces. It relies on the study of the spatial decay of quantum interference patterns in the local density of states (LDOS) with the STM. The method h ...
The nonequilibrium dynamics of a two-dimensional electron-hole gas is studied in the regime of strong and resonant pumping of the exciton resonance. The Coulomb collision rates are consistently determined by taking into account the light-induced coherence ...
