    Dynamical studies on the generation of periodic surface structures by femtosecond laser pulses
    (Les Ulis : EDP Sciences, 2013) Rosenfeld, A.; Höhm, S.; Bonse, J.; Krüger, J.
    The dynamics of the formation of laser-induced periodic surface structures (LIPSS) on fused silica upon irradiation with linearly polarized fs-laser pulses (50 fs pulse duration, 800 nm center wavelength) is studied experimentally using a double pulse experiment with cross polarized pulse sequences and a trans illumination femtosecond time-resolved (0.1 ps - 1 ns) pump-probe diffraction approach. The results in both experiments confirm the importance of the ultrafast energy deposition and the laser-induced free-electron plasma in the conduction band of the solids for the formation of LIPSS.

    Towards time resolved core level photoelectron spectroscopy with femtosecond x-ray free-electron lasers
    (College Park, MD : Institute of Physics Publishing, 2008) Pietzsch, A.; Föhlisch, A.; Beye, M.; Deppe, M.; Hennies, F.; Nagasono, M.; Suljotil, E.; Wurth, W.; Gahl, C.; Dörich, K.; Melnikov, A.
    We have performed core level photoelectron spectroscopy on a W(110) single crystal with femtosecond XUV pulses from the free-electron laser at Hamburg (FLASH). We demonstrate experimentally and through theoretical modelling that for a suitable range of photon fluences per pulse, time-resolved photoemission experiments on solid surfaces are possible. Using FLASH pulses in combination with a synchronized optical laser, we have performed femtosecond time-resolved core-level photoelectron spectroscopy and observed sideband formation on the W 4f lines indicating a cross correlation between femtosecond optical and XUV pulses. © IOP Publishing Ltd and Deutsche Physikalische Gesellschaft.

    Electron–phonon coupling in 122 Fe pnictides analyzed by femtosecond time-resolved photoemission
    (Milton Park : Taylor & Francis, 2013) Rettig, L.; Cortés, R.; Jeevan, H.S.; Gegenwart, P.; Wolf, T.; Fink, J.; Bovensiepen, U.
    Based on the results from femtosecond time-resolved photoemission, we compare three different methods for the determination of the electron–phonon coupling constant λ in Eu- and Ba-based 122 FeAs compounds. We find good agreement between all three methods, which reveal a small λ < 0.2. This makes simple electron–phonon-mediated superconductivity unlikely in these compounds.
