We examine generation dynamics of coherent phonons (CPs) in both of polar and non-polar semiconductors -- such as GaAs and Si -- based on a polaronic-quasiparticle (PQ) model. In the model concerned, the PQ operator is composed of two kinds of operators. One is a quasiboson operator -- defined as a linear combination of a set of pairs of electron operators -- and the other is a longitudinal optical (LO) phonon operator. The problem of transient and non-linear Fano resonance (FR) is tackled in particular; the vestige of this quantum interference effect was observed exclusively in lightly $n$-doped Si immediately after carriers were excited by an ultrashort pulse-laser [M. Hase et. al., Nature 426, 51 (2003)], though not observed yet in GaAs. It is shown that the phonon energy state is embedded in a continuum state formed by a set of adiabatic eigenstates of the quasiboson. This result implies the possibility of manifestation of the transient FR in the present optically-non-linear system.

We report a time resolved imaging and micromagnetic simulation study of the relaxation dynamics of a magnetic vortex in the non-linear regime. We use time-resolved photoemission electron microscopy and micromagnetic calculations to examine the emerge
nce of non-linear vortex dynamics in patterned Ni80Fe20 disks in the limit of long field pulses. We show for core shifts beyond ~20-25% of the disk radius, the initial motion is characterized by distortions of the vortex, a transient cross-tie wall state, and instabilities in the core polarization that influence the core trajectories.
Time-resolved spontaneous Raman spectroscopy serves as a probe for incoherent quasiparticle and collective excitation dynamics, and allows to distinguish symmetry changes across a photoinduced phase transition through the inelastic light scattering s
election rules. Largely unexplored is the role of the Raman resonance enhancement in the time-domain, and the transient interaction between scattering from quasiparticles and collective excitations, with the latter interaction leading to a Fano interference. In this work, we report on the observation of a phonon Raman tensor quench and Fano interference after strong photoexcitation of an intrinsic semiconductor. We observed a dynamic phonon scattering rate asymmetry and spectral asymmetry through simultaneous detection of both the anti-Stokes and Stokes response. The asymmetric phonon scattering rate is ascribed to the combined effect of the transient phonon population and the reduction of the phonon Raman tensor resulting from the photoexcited hole population. This same hole population results in a strong enhancement of the Fano spectral asymmetry.
We have developed a model describing the non-proportional response in scintillators based on non-thermalised carrier and phonon transport. We show that the thermalization of e-h distributions produced in scintillators immediately after photon absorpt
ion may take longer than the period over which the non-proportional signal forms. The carrier and LO-phonon distributions during this period remain non-degenerate at quasi-equilibrium temperatures far exceeding room temperature. We solve balance equations describing the energy exchange in a hot bipolar plasma of electrons/holes and phonons. Taking into account dynamic screening we calculate the ambipolar diffusion coefficient at all temperatures. The non-proportional light yields calculated for NaI are shown to be consistent with experimental data. We discuss the implications of a non-equilibrium model, comparing its predictions with a model based on the transport of thermalised carriers. Finally, evidence for non-equilibrium effects is suggested by the shape of non-proportionality curve and wide dispersion in data observed in K-dip spectroscopy near the threshold. A comparison of the predicted curves shows good agreement for deformation potential value in the range 7-8 eV.
Symmetry breaking across phase transitions often causes changes in selection rules and emergence of optical modes which can be detected via spectroscopic techniques or generated coherently in pump-probe experiments. In second-order or weakly first-or
der transitions, fluctuations of the order parameter are present above the ordering temperature, giving rise to intriguing precursor phenomena, such as critical opalescence. Here, we demonstrate that in magnetite (Fe$_3$O$_4$) light excitation couples to the critical fluctuations of the charge order and coherently generates structural modes of the ordered phase above the critical temperature of the Verwey transition. Our findings are obtained by detecting coherent oscillations of the optical constants through ultrafast broadband spectroscopy and analyzing their dependence on temperature. To unveil the coupling between the structural modes and the electronic excitations, at the origin of the Verwey transition, we combine our results from pump-probe experiments with spontaneous Raman scattering data and theoretical calculations of both the phonon dispersion curves and the optical constants. Our methodology represents an effective tool to study the real-time dynamics of critical fluctuations across phase transitions.
Inspired by concepts developed for fermionic systems in the framework of condensed matter physics, topology and topological states are recently being explored also in bosonic systems. The possibility of engineering systems with unidirectional wave pr
opagation and protected against disorder is at the heart of this growing interest. Topogical acoustic effects have been observed in a variety of systems, most of them based on kHz-MHz sound waves, with typical wavelength of the order of the centimeter. Recently, some of these concepts have been successfully transferred to acoustic phonons in nanoscaled multilayered systems. The reported demonstration of confined topological phononic modes was based on Raman scattering spectroscopy, yet the resolution did not suffice to determine lifetimes and to identify other acoustic modes in the system. Here, we use time-resolved pump-probe measurements using an asynchronous optical sampling (ASOPS) technique to overcome these resolution limitations. By means of one-dimensional GaAs/AlAs distributed Bragg reflectors (DBRs) as building blocks, we engineer high frequency ($sim$ 200 GHz) topological acoustic interface states. We are able to clearly distinguish confined topological states from stationary band edge modes. The detection scheme reflects the symmetry of the modes directly through the selection rules, evidencing the topological nature of the measured confined state. These experiments enable a new tool in the study of the more complex topology-driven phonon dynamics such as phonon nonlinearities and optomechanical systems with simultaneous confinement of light and sound.
