Photo- and thermally-induced electronic and structural dynamics in perovskites and transition metal oxides

Oliviero Cannelli

In this thesis, we exploited optical and X-ray pump-probe methods in a synergistic approach to study the interplay of the electronic, spin and structural degrees of freedom in two class of complex systems relevant for solar energy conversion applications: ...

Hierarchy of quasisymmetries and degeneracies in the CoSi family of chiral crystal materials

Yi-Chiang Sun, Philip Johannes Walter Moll, Chunyu Guo

In materials, certain approximated symmetry operations can exist in a lower-order approximation of the effective model but are good enough to influence the physical responses of the system, and these approximated symmetries were recently dubbed "quasisymme ...

Correlation between Optical Activity and the Helical Molecular Orbitals of Allene and Cumulenes

Anne-Clémence Corminboeuf, Marc Hamilton Folkmann Garner

Helical frontier molecular orbitals (MOs) appear in disubstituted allenes and even-n cumulenes. Chiral molecules are optically active, but while these molecules are single-handed chiral, p-orbitals of both helicities are present. Here we computationally ex ...

Twisted Bilayer Graphene Quantum Dots for Chiral Nanophotonics

Nikita Tepliakov

Twisted bilayer graphene (TBG) is a two-dimensional chiral material whose optical activity is remarkably strong for its atomic thickness. While the chiral optical properties of TBG are currently well understood, the optical activity of quantum dots (QDs) m ...

Generic phase diagram of spin relaxation in solids and the Loschmidt echo

Ferenc Simon

The spin relaxation time in solids is determined by several competing energy scales and processes, and distinct methods are called for to analyze the various regimes. We present a stochastic model for the spin dynamics in solids which is equivalent to solv ...

Absolute Structure from Scanning Electron Microscopy

Philip Johannes Walter Moll

The absence of centrosymmetry in chiral and polar crystal structures is the reason for many technical relevant physical properties like optical birefringence or ferroelectricity. Other chirality related properties that are actually intensively investigated ...

Radial Spin Texture of the Weyl Fermions in Chiral Tellurium

Philippe Bugnon, Marco Grioni, Majed Chergui, Oleg Yazyev, Luca Moreschini, Henrik Moodysson Rønnow, Alberto Crepaldi, Simon Karl Moser, Luc Testa, Mauro Fanciulli, Edoardo Martino, Gianmarco Gatti, Daniel Gosalbez Martinez, Silvan Dino Marcos Roth, Serhii Polishchuk, Michele Puppin

Trigonal tellurium, a small-gap semiconductor with pronounced magneto-electric and magneto-optical responses, is among the simplest realizations of a chiral crystal. We have studied by spin- and angle-resolved photoelectron spectroscopy its unconventional ...

Hard X-ray helical dichroism of disordered molecular media

Majed Chergui, Giulia Fulvia Mancini, Malte Oppermann, Dominik Kinschel, Oliviero Cannelli, Camila Bacellar Cases Da Silveira

Chirality is a structural property of molecules lacking mirror symmetry that has strong implications in diverse fields, ranging from life sciences to materials science. Chirality-sensitive spectroscopic methods, such as circular dichroism, exhibit weak sig ...

Magneto-optical study of metamagnetic transitions in the antiferromagnetic phase of alpha-RuCl3

Zhe Wang

alpha-RuCl3 is a promising candidate material to realize the so far elusive quantum spin liquid ground state. However, at low temperatures, the coexistence of different exchange interactions couple the effective pseudospins into an antiferromagnetically zi ...

Ultrafast Intersystem Crossing and Structural Dynamics of [Pt(ppy)(mu-(t)Bu(2)pz)](2)

Majed Chergui, Lars-Hendrik Mewes, Rebecca Ann Ingle

Intersystem crossing (ISC) rates of transition-metal complexes are determined by the complex interplay of a molecule's electronic and structural dynamics. To broaden our understanding of these key factors, we investigate the case of the prototypical d(8)-d ...

Energy relaxation pathways between light-matter states revealed by coherent two-dimensional spectroscopy

Majed Chergui, Lars-Hendrik Mewes, Rebecca Ann Ingle

Coupling matter excitations to electromagnetic modes inside nano-scale optical resonators leads to the formation of hybrid light-matter states, so-called polaritons, allowing the controlled manipulation of material properties. Here, we investigate the phot ...

Optical metasurfaces: synthesis, nanofabrication, and colorful applications

Hsiang-Chu Wang

In this thesis, we mainly utilize silver to construct the meta-atoms. Although suffering from easily oxidized, its excellent lossless property throughout the visible range makes it suitable for study. When preserved properly, silver-made metasurfaces can s ...

Spin-dependent charge transfer at chiral electrodes probed by magnetic resonance

Jean-Philippe Ansermet, Christophe Roussel, Felix Blumenschein, Mika Antero Tamski

Chirality-induced spin selectivity is evidenced by exciting the spin resonance of radicals in an electrochemical cell where the working electrode is covered with a chiral self-assembled monolayer. Because the electron transfer to and from the paramagnetic ...
