Journal ArticleDOI

Rapid and precise determination of zero-field splittings by terahertz time-domain electron paramagnetic resonance spectroscopy.

TL;DR: Single-cycle THz fields induce free-induction decays from high-spin transition-metal complexes, yielding THz EPR spectra and zero-field splitting parameters from a simple tabletop measurement.
Journal ArticleDOI

Impact-induced glass-to-rubber transition of polyurea under high-velocity temperature-controlled microparticle impact

TL;DR: In this article, the temperature-dependent microscale impact response of polyurea at a fixed impact velocity was investigated, and the soft-segmental α2-relaxation was extracted and fit with a Havriliak-Negami function.
Journal ArticleDOI

Applications of Transient Grating Spectroscopy to Radiation Materials Science

TL;DR: In this paper, transient grating (TG) spectroscopy was used to study the effects of ion irradiation on microstructural changes in situ and ex-situ, through a suite of single effect and integrated experiments.
Journal ArticleDOI

Terahertz Kerr effect

TL;DR: In this article, the authors observed optical birefringence in liquids induced by single-cycle THz pulses with field strengths exceeding 100 kV/cm, where the induced change in polarization is proportional to the square of the THz electric field.
