Electronic Signature of Melting Onset in Polycrystalline Copper at Extreme Conditions
Edna R. Toro, Tobias Held, Armin Bergermann +8
Ultrafast melting is fundamentally a structural transition of the ionic lattice, but this rearrangement also reshapes the electronic properties by changing the energy landscape and…

Probing the atomic dynamics of ultrafast melting with femtosecond electron diffraction
M. Z. Mo, M. B. Maigler, T. Held +12
Melting is an everyday phase transition that is determined by thermodynamic parameters like temperature and pressure. In contrast, ultrafast melting is governed by the microscopic…
