چکیده

We employ ultrafast transient absorption spectroscopy with temporal pulse shaping to manipulate coherent phonon excitation and quantify the strength of electron-phonon coupling in CdTe1 xSex nanocrystals (NCs). Raman active CdSe and CdTe longitudinal optical phonon (LO) modes are excited and probed in the time domain. By temporally controlling pump pulse pairs to coherently excite and cancel coherent phonons in the CdTe1 xSex NCs, we estimate the relative amount of optical energy that is coupled to the coherent CdSe LO mode.

Coherent phonon control via electron-lattice interaction in ferromagnetic Co/Pt multilayers

The manipulation of coherent phonons in condensed systems has attracted fundamental interest, particularly for its applications to future devices. We demonstrate that a coherent phonon in Co/Pt nano-multilayer can be quantitatively controlled via electron-lattice coupling, specifically by changing the multilayer repeat number. To that end, systematic measurement of the time-resolved reflectivit...

On Theory of the Phonon Perturbed Superradiance

The paper examines superradiance in impurity crystals in the field of a coherent phonon wave excited by two ultrashort laser pulses via Raman scattering processes at the moment of preparation of the initial state of an ensemble of emitters. It is shown that by varying the power of the excitation pulses and their mutual direction of propagation, one can control the superradiance parameters and e...

Application of Raman microscopy for spin-phonon coupling and magnon excitation study in nanocrystals

There is a wild variety of Raman scattering techniques which may be used for characterization of phononphonon and spin-phonon interaction in nanocrystals. For magnetic nanocrystals, Raman microscopy is a useful tool to probe the spin-phonon coupling and exchange energy between antiferromagnetic next-nearestneighboring magnons in nanocrystals below the Néel temperature. This study shows that mul...

Electron-phonon coupling parameters are calculated for La2-x BaxCuO4 cuprate superconductor in a wide range of dopings, from undoped to overdoped compounds. In this study we aim to study the quality of such calculations based on DFT method so, the results of σ GGA+U electronic structure calculations are also investigated. The obtained value for electron-phonon coupling is in the same order of p...
