Structural and electronic implications for carrier injection into organic semiconductors

Philippe Bugnon, Mauro Castellani

We report on the structural and electronic interface formation between ITO (indium-tin-oxide) and prototypical organic small molecular semiconductors, i.e., CuPc (copper phthalocyanine) and alpha-NPD (N,N'-di(naphtalen-1-yl)-N,N'-diphenyl-benzidine). In pa ...

Bulk diffusive relaxation mechanisms in optically excited topological insulators

Helmuth Berger, Arnaud Magrez, Philippe Bugnon, Alberto Crepaldi

The possibility to inject spin currents in topological insulators (TIs) by ultrashort optical pulses has stimulated intense studies of their out-of-equilibrium electronic properties. However, a comprehensive description of the electronic relaxation dynamic ...

Crystallization and Organic Field-Effect Transistor Performance of a Hydrogen-Bonded Quaterthiophene

Rosario Scopelliti, Anne-Clémence Corminboeuf, Holger Frauenrath, Philippe Bugnon, Stéphane Suarez, Riccardo Petraglia, Jan Gebers, Bilal Özen, Piotr De Silva

Crystalline thin films of pi-conjugated molecules are relevant as the active layers in organic electronic devices. Therefore, materials with enhanced control over the supramolecular arrangement, crystallinity, and thin-film morphology are desirable. Herein ...

Optical properties of BiTeBr and BiTeCl

Helmuth Berger, Arnaud Magrez, Philippe Bugnon, Ana Akrap

We present a comparative study of the optical properties-reflectance, transmission, and optical conductivity- and Raman spectra of two layered bismuth-tellurohalides BiTeBr and BiTeCl at 300 and 5 K, for light polarized in the a-b planes. Despite different ...

Ultrafast photodoping and effective Fermi-Dirac distribution of the Dirac particles in Bi2Se3

Klaus Kern, Helmuth Berger, Marco Grioni, Philippe Bugnon, Alberto Crepaldi

We exploit time- and angle-resolved photoemission spectroscopy to determine the evolution of the out-of-equilibrium electronic structure of the topological insulator Bi2Se3. The response of the Fermi-Dirac distribution to ultrashort IR laser pulses has bee ...

Unusual Shubnikov-de Haas oscillations in BiTeCl

Helmuth Berger, Arnaud Magrez, Philippe Bugnon

We report measurements of Shubnikov-de Haas oscillations in single crystals of BiTeCl at magnetic fields up to 31 T and at temperatures as low as 0.4 K. Two oscillation frequencies were resolved at the lowest temperatures, F-1 = 65 +/- 4 T and F-2 = 156 +/ ...

Experimental determination of the bulk Rashba parameters in BiTeBr

Helmuth Berger, Arnaud Magrez, Philippe Bugnon

Shubnikov-de Haas (SdH) oscillations, Hall effect, and optical reflectance (R(omega)) measurements have been performed on single crystals of BiTeBr. Under magnetic fields up to 32 tesla and at temperatures as low as 0.4K, the SdH data shows a single oscill ...

Helmuth Berger, Arnaud Magrez, Oleg Yazyev, Marco Grioni, Philippe Bugnon, Alberto Crepaldi, Gabriel Albert Autes

The prediction of Weyl fermions in the low-temperature noncentrosymmetric 1T' phase of MoTe2 still awaits clear experimental confirmation. Here, we report angle-resolved photoemission (ARPES) data and ab initio calculations that reveal a surface state arc ...
