Contact-based and spheroidal vibrational modes of a hexagonal monolayer of microspheres on a substrate
Alejandro Vega-Flick,Alejandro Vega-Flick,R. A. Duncan,Samuel P. Wallen,Nicholas Boechler,Christian Stelling,Markus Retsch,Juan Jose Alvarado-Gil,Keith A. Nelson,Alexei Maznev +9 more
TL;DR: In this article, the authors studied the effect of contact-based and sphere-sphere contacts on spheroidal vibrational modes of the spheres within a perturbative approach.
Journal ArticleDOI
Crystalline-like ordering of 8CB liquid crystals revealed by time-domain Brillouin scattering.
Ievgeniia Chaban,Ievgeniia Chaban,Christoph Klieber,Rémi Busselez,Keith A. Nelson,Thomas Pezeril,Thomas Pezeril +6 more
TL;DR: These TDBS results reveal that confinement effects favor structuring of the smectic phase into a crystallinelike phase that can be observed at wide distances far beyond the molecular dimensions.
Journal ArticleDOI
Single-Shot Multi-Frame Imaging of Cylindrical Shock Waves in a Multi-Layered Assembly.
Leora Dresselhaus-Cooper,Leora Dresselhaus-Cooper,Joshua E. Gorfain,Chris T. Key,Benjamin K. Ofori-Okai,Suzanne Ali,Dmitro Martynowych,Arianna Gleason,Steven E. Kooi,Keith A. Nelson +9 more
TL;DR: In this paper, single-shot multi-frame imaging of quasi-2D cylindrically converging shock waves as they propagate through a multi-layer target sample assembly is presented.
Journal ArticleDOI
Intramolecular proton transfer of a 2-(2′,4′-dinitrobenzyl)pyridine studied by femtosecond transient absorption spectroscopy
TL;DR: In this paper, the photochromic intramolecular proton transfer in 2-(2′,4′-dinitrobenzyl)pyridine was investigated by femtosecond pump-probe transient absorption spectroscopy.
Journal ArticleDOI
Room Temperature Terahertz Electroabsorption Modulation by Excitons in Monolayer Transition Metal Dichalcogenides.
Jiaojian Shi,Edoardo Baldini,Simone Latini,Shunsuke A. Sato,Shunsuke A. Sato,Yaqing Zhang,Brandt C. Pein,Pin-Chun Shen,Jing Kong,Angel Rubio,Angel Rubio,Nuh Gedik,Keith A. Nelson +12 more
TL;DR: It is observed that the THz pump pulse causes a selective modification of the coherence lifetime of the excitons, while keeping their oscillator strength and peak energy unchanged, which opens the way to the use of semiconducting transition metal dichalcogenides as compact and efficient platforms for high-speed electroabsorption devices.
