Enhanced Valley Polarization via Nonlinear Cascaded Quantum-Geometric Selection Rules

Quentin Courtade, Sotirios Fragkos, Dominique Descamps +4

The quantum geometric properties of Bloch electrons fundamentally govern light-matter interactions and optical selection rules in solids. In semiconducting transition-metal dichalc…

Dielectric Screening in Electromagnetic Dressing of Semiconductors

Quentin Courtade, Umberto Dellasette, Sotirios Fragkos +4

Nonequilibrium manipulation of quantum materials via electromagnetic dressing provides an on-demand route to tailoring electronic band structures through Floquet engineering. Time-…

Electron-phonon-dominated charge-density-wave fluctuations in TiSe accessed by ultrafast nonequilibrium dynamics

Sotirios Fragkos, Hibiki Orio, Nina Girotto Erhardt +17

The complex phase diagram of 1T-TiSe2 consists of a charge density wave (CDW) below 200 K, and CDW fluctuations of still unknown origin at higher temperatures. Here, we use time-re…

Multimode Objective Lens for Momentum Microscopy and XPEEM: Experiments

O. Tkach, S. Fragkos, D. Biswas +37

A new type of objective lens has recently been proposed for use in X-ray photoemission electron microscopes (XPEEMs) and momentum microscopes. Adding a ring electrode concentric wi…

Theory of Non-Dichroic Enantio-Sensitive Chiroptical Spectroscopy

Andrés Ordóñez, David Ayuso, Piero Decleva +4

We show that the photoelectron angular distributions produced by elliptical and cross-polarized two-color laser fields interacting with randomly oriented chiral molecules decompose…

Non-Dichroic Enantio-Sensitive Chiroptical Spectroscopy

Letizia Fede, Debobrata Rajak, Chris Sparling +8

Chiroptical effects using circularly polarized light produce signals that change sign when switching either molecular handedness (enantiosensitivity) or the light helicity (circula…
