Influence of substitution pattern on the dynamics of internal conversion and intersystem crossing in thiopyridone isomers

We report a combined experimental and theoretical investigation of the ultrafast internal conversion (IC) and intersystem crossing (ISC) dynamics of two thiopyridone (TP) isomers in solution. Our study used ultrafast transient X-ray absorption spectroscopy (XAS) at the sulfur K-edge, in conjunction with electronic excited state surface hopping molecular dynamics and simulations of the excited state XAS, to investigate the impact of the functional group substitution pattern and solvent on the dynamics of IC and ISC. The combination of the localized X-ray probe and the simulation results enables, in part, the differentiation between ππ* and nπ* character excited states, as well as singlet and triplet states. Access to nπ* character excitations has particular value since they often prove challenging to assess with optical spectroscopy. For 2-TP, the photoexcited S 2 (ππ*) state rapidly undergoes IC to the S 1 (nπ*) state below the instrument response time, followed by ISC to the T 1 (ππ*) state on a timescale of 600 fs in acetonitrile. For 4-TP, the timescale of S 2 to S 1 IC increases to 330 fs and the timescale of ISC increases to more than 10 ps. The differences between isomers are rationalized by considering the key role of the, nπ* intermediates in mediating the intersystem crossing of these systems. Varying the substitution pattern of the molecule can stabilize or destabilize these intermediates leading to the increase in ISC rate in the ortho isomer as compared to the para isomer, while changing the solvent from acetonitrile to water had minimal effect on the electronic excited state relaxation mechanism.

Direct Observation of the ππ* to nπ* Transition in 2-Thiouracil via Time-Resolved NEXAFS Spectroscopy

The photophysics of nucleobases has been the subject of both theoretical and experimental studies over the past decades due to the challenges posed by resolving the steps of their radiationless relaxation dynamics, which cannot be described in the framework of the Born–Oppenheimer approximation (BOA). In this context, the ultrafast dynamics of 2-thiouracil has been investigated with a time-resolved NEXAFS study at the Free Electron Laser FLASH. Near Edge X-ray Absorption Fine Structure spectroscopy (NEXAFS) can be used to observe electronic transitions in ultrafast molecular relaxation. We performed time-resolved UV-pump/X-ray probe absorption measurements at the sulfur 2s (L1) and 2p (L2/3) edges. We are able to identify absorption features corresponding to the S2 (ππ*) and S1 (nπ*) electronic states. We observe a delay of 102 ± 11 fs in the population of the nπ* state with respect to the initial optical excitation and interpret the delay as the time scale for the S2 → S1 internal conversion. We furthermore identify oscillations in the absorption signal that match a similar observation in our previous X-ray photoelectron spectroscopy study on the same molecule.

Impurity-enhanced core valence luminescence via Zn-doping in cesium magnesium chlorides

Scintillators with faster timing capabilities are currently in high demand for use in radiation detection systems in the fields of nuclear and medical physics. The limited number of suitable materials that meet the performance criteria of next generation detection systems presents an opportunity for discovery of new fast scintillator materials. In this work, the effects of doping several ultrafast core-valence luminescent (CVL) scintillators with divalent Zn is explored. Three compounds are investigated – CsMgCl 3 , Cs 2 MgCl 4 , and Cs 3 MgCl 5 – and single crystals of each doped with 5 mol% Zn are grown via the Bridgman method. Additionally, mixing across the full range of concentrations (from 0 % to 100 % Zn) is explored in the Cs 2 Mg 1-x Zn x Cl 4 and Cs 3 Mg 1-x Zn x Cl 5 systems. For low concentrations of Zn, light yields of all three compounds are enhanced (by up to ~60 %) compared to the pure crystals, achieving what we believe to be the brightest known CVL, CsMgCl 3 :Zn 5 % (3400 ± 170 ph/MeV light yield). More importantly, Zn doping does not affect the ultrafast timing properties, with each composition maintaining a single-component decay time around 1–3 ns. A sub-100 ps coincidence time resolution (CTR) is also achieved with CsMgCl 3 :Zn 5 %. The results of this work reveal a new avenue towards obtaining brighter CVL materials, which could open up possibilities for more advanced ultrafast scintillators to be discovered moving forward.

Accelerating Quantum Materials Development with Advances in Transmission Electron Microscopy

Quantum materials are driving a technology revolution in sensing, communication, and computing, while simultaneously testing many core theories of the past century. Materials such as topological insulators, complex oxides, superconductors, quantum dots, color center-hosting semiconductors, and other types of strongly correlated materials can exhibit exotic properties such as edge conductivity, multiferroicity, magnetoresistance, superconductivity, single photon emission, and optical-spin locking. These emergent properties arise and depend strongly on the material’s detailed atomic-scale structure, including atomic defects, dopants, and lattice stacking. In this review, we describe how progress in the field of electron microscopy (EM), including in situ and in operando EM, can accelerate advances in quantum materials and quantum excitations. We begin by describing fundamental EM principles and operation modes. We then discuss various EM methods such as (i) EM spectroscopies, including electron energy loss spectroscopy (EELS), cathodoluminescence (CL), and electron energy gain spectroscopy (EEGS); (ii) four-dimensional scanning transmission electron microscopy (4D-STEM); (iii) dynamic and ultrafast EM (UEM); (iv) complementary ultrafast spectroscopies (UED, XFEL); and (v) atomic electron tomography (AET). We describe how these methods could inform structure–function relations in quantum materials down to the picometer scale and femtosecond time resolution, and how they enable precision positioning of atomic defects and high-resolution manipulation of quantum materials. For each method, we also describe existing limitations to solve open quantum mechanical questions, and how they might be addressed to accelerate progress. Among numerous notable results, our review highlights how EM is enabling identification of the 3D structure of quantum defects; measuring reversible and metastable dynamics of quantum excitations; mapping exciton states and single photon emission; measuring nanoscale thermal transport and coupled excitation dynamics; and measuring the internal electric field and charge density distribution of quantum heterointerfaces- all at the quantum materials’ intrinsic atomic and near atomic-length scale. Finally, we conclude by describing open challenges for the future, including achieving stable sample holders for ultralow temperature (below 10K) atomic-scale spatial resolution, stable spectrometers that enable meV energy resolution, and high-resolution, dynamic mapping of magnetic and spin fields. With atomic manipulation and ultrafast characterization enabled by EM, quantum materials will be poised to integrate into many of the sustainable and energy-efficient technologies needed for the 21st century.

Exploring Excited State Proton Transfer Dynamics upon Ultraviolet Excitation

Excited state intramolecular proton transfer (ESIPT) has been investigated in two prototypical systems─salicylaldehyde azine (SAA) and 1,5-dihydroxyanthraquinone (DHAQ)─using transient absorption spectroscopy upon ultraviolet excitation into the less studied higher excited (S n ) manifold. Excitation with sub-30 fs pulses and broadband visible probing has allowed for direct measurement of the ESIPT rate. In conjunction with steady-state measurements and TD-DFT calculations, a complete delineation of the ultrafast photophysics has been carried out. In SAA, ESIPT remains ultrafast (∼30 fs), consistent with previous S 1 excitation studies. Coherent vibrational beats maps reveal significant wavelength dependence, however. Theoretical analysis suggests that the observed modes and their intensities in coherent vibrational spectra are modulated by the nature of the electronically excited state. In DHAQ, the first direct observation of ESIPT presents a time-constant of ∼85 fs, and a slower component of 9 ps, akin to previous reports on double-proton transfer systems. Collectively, the results suggest that while the ultrafast ESIPT rate remains largely invariant vis-à-vis the excitation energy, the product yield, as well as accompanying coherent oscillations, may be substantively altered, owing to the existence of alternative decay pathways.

Extracting the Frequency-Dependent Dynamic Stokes Shift from Two-Dimensional Electronic Spectra with Prominent Vibrational Coherences

The dynamic Stokes shift is a common means for characterizing ultrafast solvation dynamics of electronically excited states. Here we extract the excitation frequency-dependent dynamic Stokes shift from two-dimensional electronic spectra (2DES) of cresyl violet, a molecule with a well-defined vibronic progression. The extracted dynamic Stokes shift function, S(t), exhibits oscillatory behavior, and the oscillatory components are assigned to intramolecular vibrational modes through DFT and TD-DFT calculations. Here, the well-characterized oscillations are incorporated into the fitting procedure of S(t). The excitation frequency dependence of the ultrafast response is examined through the analysis of S(t) obtained from slices taken at different excitation frequencies of the 2DES spectra. The extracted ultrafast timescales range from 36 to 98 fs, and we interpret the frequency dependence of the timescales in the context of other dynamic processes that also lead to lineshape changes in the 2DES spectrum, such as vibrational energy relaxation and spectral diffusion. Through comparison of the extracted timescales, we find that the fastest timescales are extracted over a range of excitation frequencies, where contributions from vibrational relaxation and spectral diffusion can be minimized.

The “Hole” Story in Ionized Water from the Perspective of Ehrenfest Dynamics

The radiolysis of liquid water and the radiation-matter interactions that happen in aqueous environments are important to the elds of chemistry, materials, and environmental sciences, as well as biological and physiological response to extreme conditions and medical treatments. The initial stage of radiolysis is the ultrafast response, or hole dynamics, that trigger chemical processes within complex energetic landscapes that may include reactivity. A fundamental understanding necessitates the use of theoretical methods that are capable of simulating both ultrafast coherence and non-adiabatic energy transfer pathways. In this work, we carry out an ab initio Ehrenfest dynamic study in order to provide a more complete description of the ultrafast dynamics and reactive events initiated by photoionization of water. Furthermore, after sudden ionization, the range of processes that include hole trapping and transfer, large OH oscillations, proton transfer and subsequent relay, formation of the metastable Zundel complex, and long-lived coherence, are identied and new insight into their driving forces are elucidated.

The Dynamical Role of Optical Phonons and Sublattice Screening in a Solid-State Ion Conductor

Solid-state electrolytes (SSEs) require ionic conductivities that are competitive with liquid electrolytes to realize applications in all-solid-state batteries. Although candidate SSEs have been discovered, the underlying mechanisms enabling superionic conduction (>1 mS cm –1 ) remain elusive. In particular, the role of ultrafast lattice dynamics in mediating ion migration, which involves couplings between ions, phonons, and electrons, is rarely explored experimentally at their corresponding time scales. To investigate the complex contributions of coupled lattice dynamics on ion migration, we modulate the charge density occupations within the crystal framework and then measure the time-resolved change in impedance on picosecond time scales for a candidate SSE, Li 0.5 La 0.5 TiO 3 (LLTO). Upon perturbation, we observe enhanced ion migration at ultrafast time scales. The respective transients match the time scales of optical and acoustic phonon vibrations, suggesting their involvement in ion migration. We further computationally evaluate the effect of a charge transfer from the O 2p to the Ti 3d band on the electronic and physical structure of LLTO. We hypothesize that the charge-transfer excitation distorts the TiO 6 polyhedra by altering the local charge density occupancy of the hopping site at the migration pathway saddle point, thereby causing a reduction in the migration barrier for the Li + hop. We rule out the contribution of photogenerated electron carriers and laser heating. Overall, our investigation introduces a new spectroscopic tool to probe fundamental ion hopping mechanisms transiently at ultrafast time scales, which has previously only been achieved in a time-averaged manner or solely via computational methods.

In-situ observation of trapped carriers in organic metal halide perovskite films with ultra-fast temporal and ultra-high energetic resolutions

Abstract We in-situ observe the ultrafast dynamics of trapped carriers in organic methyl ammonium lead halide perovskite thin films by ultrafast photocurrent spectroscopy with a sub-25 picosecond time resolution. Upon ultrafast laser excitation, trapped carriers follow a phonon assisted tunneling mechanism and a hopping transport mechanism along ultra-shallow to shallow trap states ranging from 1.72–11.51 millielectronvolts and is demonstrated by time-dependent and independent activation energies. Using temperature as an energetic ruler, we map trap states with ultra-high energy resolution down to < 0.01 millielectronvolt. In addition to carrier mobility of ~4 cm 2 V −1 s −1 and lifetime of ~1 nanosecond, we validate the above transport mechanisms by highlighting trap state dynamics, including trapping rates, de-trapping rates and trap properties, such as trap density, trap levels, and capture-cross sections. In this work we establish a foundation for trap dynamics in high defect-tolerant perovskites with ultra-fast temporal and ultra-high energetic resolution.

Coherent helicity-dependent spin-phonon oscillations in the ferromagnetic van der Waals crystal CrI3

Abstract The discovery of two-dimensional systems hosting intrinsic magnetic order represents a seminal addition to the rich landscape of van der Waals materials. CrI 3 is an archetypal example, where the interdependence of structure and magnetism, along with strong light-matter interactions, provides a new platform to explore the optical control of magnetic and vibrational degrees of freedom at the nanoscale. However, the nature of magneto-structural coupling on its intrinsic ultrafast timescale remains a crucial open question. Here, we probe magnetic and vibrational dynamics in bulk CrI 3 using ultrafast optical spectroscopy, revealing spin-flip scattering-driven demagnetization and strong transient exchange-mediated interactions between lattice vibrations and spin oscillations. The latter yields a coherent spin-coupled phonon mode that is highly sensitive to the driving pulse’s helicity in the magnetically ordered phase. Our results elucidate the nature of ultrafast spin-lattice coupling in CrI 3 and highlight its potential for applications requiring high-speed control of magnetism at the nanoscale.

Photoinduced hydrogen dissociation in thymine predicted by coupled cluster theory

The fate of thymine upon excitation by ultraviolet radiation has been the subject of intense debate. Today, it is widely believed that its ultrafast excited state gas phase decay stems from a radiationless transition from the bright ππ* state to a dark nπ* state. However, conflicting theoretical predictions have made the experimental data difficult to interpret. Here we simulate the early gas phase ultrafast dynamics in thymine at the highest level of theory to date. This is made possible by performing wavepacket dynamics with a recently developed coupled cluster method. Our simulation confirms an ultrafast ππ* to nπ* transition (τ = 41 ± 14 fs). Furthermore, the predicted oxygen-edge X-ray absorption spectra agree quantitatively with experiment. We also predict an as-yet uncharacterized πσ* channel that leads to hydrogen dissociation at one of the two N-H bonds. Similar behavior has been identified in other heteroaromatic compounds, including adenine, and several authors have speculated that a similar pathway may exist in thymine. However, this was never confirmed theoretically or experimentally. This prediction calls for renewed efforts to experimentally identify or exclude the presence of this channel.

Dynamical phase-field model of coupled electronic and structural processes

Abstract Many functional and quantum materials derive their functionality from the responses of both their electronic and lattice subsystems to thermal, electric, and mechanical stimuli or light. Here we propose a dynamical phase-field model for predicting and modeling the dynamics of simultaneous electronic and structural processes and the accompanying mesoscale pattern evolution under static or ultrafast external stimuli. As an illustrative example of application, we study the transient dynamic response of ferroelectric domain walls excited by an ultrafast above-bandgap light pulse. We discover a two-stage relaxational electronic carrier evolution and a structural evolution containing multiple oscillational and relaxational components across picosecond to nanosecond timescales. The phase-field model offers a general theoretical framework which can be applied to a wide range of functional and quantum materials with interactive electronic and lattice orders and phase transitions to understand, predict, and manipulate their ultrafast dynamics and rich mesoscale evolution dynamics of domains, domain walls, and charges.

Non-equilibrium pathways to emergent polar supertextures

Ultrafast stimuli can stabilize metastable states of matter inaccessible by equilibrium means. Establishing the spatiotemporal link between ultrafast excitation and metastability is crucial to understand these phenomena. Here, in this work, we utilize single-shot optical pump–X-ray probe measurements to capture snapshots of the emergence of a persistent polar vortex supercrystal in a heterostructure that hosts a fine balance between built-in electrostatic and elastic frustrations by design. By perturbing this balance with photoinduced charges, an initially heterogeneous mixture of polar phase disorders within a few picoseconds, leading to a state composed of disordered ferroelectric and suppressed vortex orders. On the picosecond–nanosecond timescales, transient labyrinthine fluctuations develop, accompanied by the recovery of the vortex order. On longer timescales, these fluctuations are progressively quenched by dynamical strain modulations, which drive the collective emergence of a single vortex supercrystal phase. Our results, corroborated by dynamical phase-field modelling, reveal non-equilibrium pathways following the ultrafast excitation of designer systems to persistent metastability.

Spatio-spectral optical fission in time-varying subwavelength layers

Transparent conducting oxides are highly doped semiconductors that exhibit favourable optical features compared with metals, including reduced material losses, tuneable electronic and optical properties, and enhanced damage thresholds. Recently, the photonic community has renewed its attention towards these materials, recognizing their remarkable nonlinear optical properties in the near-infrared spectrum. The exceptionally large and ultrafast change in the refractive index, which can be optically induced in these compounds, extends beyond the boundaries of conventional perturbative analysis and makes this class of materials the closest approximation to a time-varying system. Here we report the spatio-spectral fission of an ultrafast pulse trespassing a thin film of aluminium zinc oxide with a non-stationary refractive index. By applying phase conservation to this time-varying layer, our model can account for both space and time refraction and explain, in quantitative terms, the spatial separation of both spectrum and energy. Our findings represent an example of extreme nonlinear phenomena on subwavelength propagation distances, which provides new insights into transparent conducting oxides’ transient optical properties. This can be critical for the ongoing research on photonic time crystals, on-chip generation of non-classical states of light, integrated optical neural networks, ultrafast beam steering and frequency-division multiplexing.

Spin-mediated shear oscillators in a van der Waals antiferromagnet

Understanding how microscopic spin configuration gives rise to exotic properties at the macroscopic length scale has long been pursued in magnetic materials. One seminal example is the Einstein-de Haas effect in ferromagnets, in which angular momentum of spins can be converted into mechanical rotation of an entire object. However, for antiferromagnets without net magnetic moment, how spin ordering couples to macroscopic movement remains elusive. Here we observed a seesaw-like rotation of reciprocal lattice peaks of an antiferromagnetic nanolayer film, whose gigahertz structural resonance exhibits more than an order-of-magnitude amplification after cooling below the Neel temperature. Using a suite of ultrafast diffraction and microscopy techniques, we directly visualize this spin-driven rotation in reciprocal space at the nanoscale. This motion corresponds to interlayer shear in real space, in which individual micro-patches of the film behave as coherent oscillators that are phase-locked and shear along the same in-plane axis. Using time-resolved optical polarimetry, we further show that the enhanced mechanical response strongly correlates with ultrafast demagnetization, which releases elastic energy stored in local strain gradients to drive the oscillators. Finally, our work not only offers the first microscopic view of spin-mediated mechanical motion of an antiferromagnet but it also identifies a new route towards realizing high-frequency resonators up to the millimetre band, so the capability of controlling magnetic states on the ultrafast timescale can be readily transferred to engineering the mechanical properties of nanodevices.

Giant energy storage and power density negative capacitance superlattices

Dielectric electrostatic capacitors, because of their ultrafast charge-discharge, are desirable for high-power energy storage applications. Along with ultrafast operation, on-chip integration can enable miniaturized energy storage devices for emerging autonomous microelectronics and microsystems. Moreover, state-of-the-art miniaturized electrochemical energy storage systems-microsupercapacitors and microbatteries-currently face safety, packaging, materials and microfabrication challenges preventing on-chip technological readiness, leaving an opportunity for electrostatic microcapacitors. Here, in this study, we report record-high electrostatic energy storage density (ESD) and power density, to our knowledge, in HfO 2 -ZrO 2 -based thin film microcapacitors integrated into silicon, through a three-pronged approach. First, to increase intrinsic energy storage, atomic-layer-deposited antiferroelectric HfO 2 -ZrO 2 films are engineered near a field-driven ferroelectric phase transition to exhibit amplified charge storage by the negative capacitance effect, which enhances volumetric ESD beyond the best-known back-end-of-the-line-compatible dielectrics (115 J cm -3 ). Second, to increase total energy storage, antiferroelectric superlattice engineering scales the energy storage performance beyond the conventional thickness limitations of HfO 2 -ZrO 2 -based (anti)ferroelectricity (100-nm regime). Third, to increase the storage per footprint, the superlattices are conformally integrated into three-dimensional capacitors, which boosts the areal ESD nine times and the areal power density 170 times that of the best-known electrostatic capacitors: 80 mJ cm -2 and 300 kW cm -2 , respectively. This simultaneous demonstration of ultrahigh energy density and power density overcomes the traditional capacity-speed trade-off across the electrostatic-electrochemical energy storage hierarchy. Furthermore, the integration of ultrahigh-density and ultrafast-charging thin films within a back-end-of-the-line-compatible process enables monolithic integration of on-chip microcapacitors, which can unlock substantial energy storage and power delivery performance for electronic microsystems.

Applying Bayesian inference and deterministic anisotropy to retrieve the molecular structure ∣Ψ(R)∣2 distribution from gas-phase diffraction experiments

Abstract Currently, our general approach to retrieving molecular structures from ultrafast gas-phase diffraction heavily relies on complex ab initio electronic or vibrational excited state simulations to make conclusive interpretations. Without such simulations, inverting this measurement for the structural probability distribution is typically intractable. This creates a so-called inverse problem. Here we address this inverse problem by developing a broadly applicable method that approximates the molecular frame structure ∣Ψ( R , t )∣ 2 distribution independent of these complex simulations. We retrieve the vibronic ground state ∣Ψ( R )∣ 2 for both simulated stretched NO 2 and measured N 2 O. From measured N 2 O, we observe 40 mÅ coordinate-space resolution from 3.75 Å −1 reciprocal space range and poor signal-to-noise, a 50X improvement over traditional Fourier transform methods. In simulated NO 2 diffraction experiments, typical to high signal-to-noise levels predict 100–1000X resolution improvements, down to 0.1 mÅ. By directly measuring the width of ∣Ψ( R )∣ 2 , we open ultrafast gas-phase diffraction capabilities to measurements beyond current analysis approaches. This method has the potential to effectively turn gas-phase ultrafast diffraction into a discovery-oriented technique to probe systems that are prohibitively difficult to simulate.

A compact electron source for the dielectric laser accelerator

In this work, we design and demonstrate a compact electron source that combines an integrated silicon nanotip photoemitter with a compact silicon-based electrostatic lens. The lens simultaneously accelerates electrons to 30 keV and focuses the resulting beam to a 0.4 μm (RMS) beam diameter with 62 pm-rad normalized emittance at a distance of 20 mm from the cathode. The compact nature of this lens provides a compelling source for dielectric laser accelerator (DLA) beamlines, ultrafast electron diffraction, or ultrafast electron microscopy. Driven by a 220 fs, 1960 nm pulsed laser beam, electron currents up to 28 electrons/pulse at 100 kHz are demonstrated. The electron bunch length is 540 ± 50 fs for photocurrents of <1 electron/pulse, increasing to 700 ± 80 fs for 28 electrons/pulse, as measured by cross correlation with a 220 fs pulsed laser beam. The maximum 5D peak brightness is measured to be 6.8 × 10 13 A/(m 2 rad 2 ) at 28 electrons/pulse. These results represent a significant step toward developing practical benchtop-sized linear accelerators based on DLA technology or compact ultrafast electron microscopy and diffraction applications.
