Ultrafast heat transfer in single palladium nanocrystals seen with an X-ray free-electron laser
David Yang, James Wrigley, Jack Griffiths +11
We report transient highly strained structural states in individual palladium (Pd) nanocrystals, electronically heated using an optical laser, which precede their uniform thermal e…

Orthogonal lattice distortions inside crystalline Si upon sub-threshold femtosecond laser-induced excitation
Angel RodrÃguez-Fernández, Jan-Etienne Pudell, Roman Shayduk +18
Material processing with femtosecond lasers has attracted enormous attention because of its potential for technology and industrial applications. In parallel, time-resolved x-ray d…

Ultrafast X-ray sonography reveals the spatial heterogeneity of the laser-induced magneto-structural phase transition in FeRh
Maximilian Mattern, Angel Rodriguez-Fernandez, Roman Shayduk +13
Phase transitions are governed by both intrinsic and extrinsic heterogeneities, yet capturing their spatio-temporal dynamics remains a challenge. While ultrafast techniques track p…
