Femtosecond X-ray diffraction of short-pulse irradiated semiconductors
Conference on Quantum Electronics and Laser Science (QELS) - Technical Digest Series 74 (2002) 113
Abstract:
Ultrafast optical-pump, x-ray diffraction probe experiments are providing new ways to study transient processes in physics, chemistry, and biology. In addition, the direct observation of the atomic motion by which many solid-state processes and chemical and biochemical reaction take place is included as well. As such, current table-top-terawatt femtosecond laser systems provide an attractive source of few-hundred femtosecond duration bursts of angstrom-scale x-ray radiation with fluxes comparable to standard rotating-anode sources.Femtosecond time-resolved X-ray diffraction study of ultrafast structural dynamics in laser-excited solids

Abstract:
Time-resolved x-ray diffraction with sub-300 fs, multi-keV x-ray pulses was used to study ultrafast lattice dynamics in laser-irradiated germanium and bismuth. In bismuth strong excitation of optical phonons is observed prior to disordering of the material.Femtosecond x-ray diffraction of short-pulse irradiated semiconductors
Pacific Rim Conference on Lasers and Electro-Optics, CLEO - Technical Digest (2002) 297-298
Abstract:
Femtosecond X-ray diffraction of short-pulse irradiated semiconductors was discussed. Ultrafast non-thermal solid-to-liquid transition in thin single-crystal Ge-111 films grown on Si-111 substrates were also studied. Proposed 4th generation light sources based upon single-pass x-ray free-electron lasers permitted single-shot structural determination of complex biomolecules.Generation and Applications of Femtosecond X-Rays from the Advanced Light Source
