Hamburg Photon Science Colloquium | How to describe pump-probe experiments in quantum materials

by James Freericks (Georgetown University, Washington, D.C. USA)

Friday 11 Apr 2025, 14:00 → 15:30 Europe/Berlin

SemR I-III (CFEL, Bldg. 99)

I will describe both the challenges, and how to address them, when theoretically modelling ultrafast pump-probe experiments in strongly correlated materials and in materials with strong electron-phonon coupling. After providing an introduction, I will focus on two case studies: (i) examining the response at picosecond times of chargedensity waves with ultrashort pulses that drive the electrons and (ii) examining the response on femtosecond times for nonresonant electronic Raman scattering.

Coffee, tea and cake will be served at 1:45 pm.
