A1 - Kammler, Martin T1 - Femtosecond x-ray measurement of ultrafast melting and large acoustic transients JF - Physical review letters N2 - Time-resolved x-ray diffraction with ultrashort ( approximately 300 fs), multi-keV x-ray pulses has been used to study the femtosecond laser-induced solid-to-liquid phase transition in a thin crystalline layer of germanium. Nonthermal melting is observed to take place within 300-500 fs. Following ultrafast melting we observe strong acoustic perturbations evolving on a picosecond time scale.

In bismuth strong excitation of optical phonons is observed prior to disordering of the material.

A1 - Kammler, Martin T1 - Transient lattice dynamics in fs-laser-excited semiconductors probed by ultrafast X-ray diffraction JF - Journal de Physique IV N2 - A study of lattice dynamics in fs-laser-excited crystalline bulk Ge and Ge/Si-heterostructures, using time-resolved x-ray diffraction, was presented. Fast energy transport deep into the bulk of the material, coherent acoustic phonon dynamics, lattice anharmonicity, and vibrational transport across a buried interfaces were observed. Graphs showing time-dependent shifts of the centroid of the measured rocking curves in the Ge-overlayer and in the Si-substrate for different fluences, were presented.

A1 - Kammler, Martin T1 - Anharmonic lattice dynamics in germanium measured with ultrafast x-ray diffraction JF - Physical review letters N2 - Damping of impulsively generated coherent acoustic oscillations in a femtosecond laser-heated thin germanium film is measured as a function of fluence by means of ultrafast x-ray diffraction. By simultaneously measuring picosecond strain dynamics in the film and in the unexcited silicon substrate, we separate anharmonic damping from acoustic transmission through the buried interface. The measured damping rate and its dependence on the calculated temperature of the thermal bath is consistent with estimated four-body, elastic dephasing times (T2) for 7-GHz longitudinal acoustic phonons in germanium.
