Ultra-broadband and time-resolved depolarized dynamic light scattering for probing molecular dynamics in supercooled liquids and glasses

Till Böhmer, Rolf Zeißler, Robin Schwäch +3

The paper presents a depolarized dynamic light scattering (DDLS) setup that combines photon‑correlation spectroscopy and multispeckle imaging to measure molecular rotational dynami…

Jamming and Flow in Granular Matter: A Physics Lab Course Experiment

Thomas Blochowicz, Emina Ismajli, Jan Philipp Gabriel

We describe a dynamic light scattering setup that uses diffusing wave spectroscopy (DWS) to investigate the dynamics in sand grains subjected to periodic vertical shaking by a loud…

Non-exponential relaxation without dynamic heterogeneity in van der Waals liquids above the melting point

Rolf Zeißler, Niklas Pfeiffer, Thomas Blochowicz

We investigate the influence of dynamic heterogeneity on the spectral shape of structural relaxation in van der Waals liquids above the melting point by means of depolarized dynami…

On the Role of Internal Degrees of Freedom in Structural Relaxation of Ring-Tail Structured Liquids Across Temperature Regimes

Rolf Zeißler, Sandra Krüger, Robin Horstmann +3

We investigate how anisotropic molecular rotation and internal molecular flexibility influence liquid dynamics in 1-phenylalkanes. To this end, we combine depolarized dynamic light…

A Fresh Perspective on Water Dynamics in Aqueous Salt Solutions

Rolf Zeißler, Florian Pabst, Thomas Blochowicz

Molecular dynamics in pure water and aqueous salt solutions remain incompletely understood, partly due to the apparent contradictions between results from different spectroscopic t…

On the Spectral Shape of the Structural Relaxation in Deeply Supercooled Liquids

Till Böhmer, Florian Pabst, Jan Gabriel +2

Structural relaxation in deeply supercooled liquids is non-exponential. In susceptibility representation, , the spectral shape of the structural relaxation i…
