Emergent Antiphase Stacking in a Transient Charge Density Wave
Jade Stanton, Gal Orenstein, Ryan A. Duncan +14
Photoexcitation can induce novel states in materials that are inaccessible in equilibrium, a recent example being the light-induced charge density wave (CDW) observed in $\text{LaT…
Dynamically suppressed lattice rotations in SrTiO as a basis for photo-induced ferroelectricity
Huaiyu Hugo Wang, Michael Fechner, Giovanni De Vecchi +22
Photo-induced ferroelectricity in the quantum paraelectric SrTiO involves the dynamical interplay between a coherently driven Ti-O stretching vibration and multiple structural…
Origins of suppressed self-diffusion of nanoscale constituents of a complex liquid
Christian P. N. Tanner, Vivian R. K. Wall, Mumtaz Gababa +25
Understanding and ultimately controlling the transformations and properties of nanoscale systems, from proteins to synthetic nanomaterial assemblies, is limited by the inability to…
diffpy.morph: Python tools for model independent comparisons between sets of 1D functions
Andrew Yang, Christopher L. Farrow, Pavol Juhás +22
diffpymorph addresses a need to gain scientific insights from 1D scientific spectra in model independent ways. A powerful approach for this is to take differences between pairs…
Dimensionality reduction of optically generated vortex strings in a charge density wave
Sajal Dahal, Alex H. Miller, Viktor Krapivin +11
In phase transitions, mesoscale structures such as topological defects, vortex strings, and domain walls control the path towards equilibrium, and thus the functional properties of…
Nanoscale Ultrafast Lattice Modulation with Hard X-ray Free Electron Laser
Haoyuan Li, Nan Wang, Leon Zhang +24
Understanding and controlling microscopic dynamics across spatial and temporal scales has driven major progress in science and technology over the past several decades. While ultra…
