The electron-phonon coupling is the primary mechanism responsible for material relaxation
after ultrafast laser irradiation. However, it remains an elusive variable that is extremely …

A nonperturbative dynamical coupling approach based on tight-binding molecular dynamics
is used to evaluate the electron-ion (electron-phonon) coupling parameter in irradiated …

At ambient conditions, SiC is resistant to irradiation with swift heavy ions (SHI) decelerating
in the electronic stop** regime. However, there is no experimental data on the SiC …

We performed the experimental and theoretical study of the heating and damaging of
ruthenium thin films induced by femtosecond laser irradiation. We present the results of an …

This paper describes the effects of electronic nonequilibrium in a simulation of ultrafast laser
irradiation of materials. The simulation scheme based on tight-binding molecular dynamics …

Ultrashort-pulse laser excitation and associated thermal damage of single-layer metallic
films have been extensively studied both theoretically as well as experimentally. However …

Due to its extremely short timescale, the non-equilibrium melting of metals is exceptionally
difficult to probe experimentally. The knowledge of melting mechanisms is thus based …

We calculated the electron-ion energy relaxation times in warm dense aluminum and gold.
Our calculations span a wide temperature range from a thousand to a million kelvins for both …

Heat transport in solids is governed by two fundamental contributions, atomic and electronic.
The electronic energy transport in transient excited states is a defining factor in the problem …

The paper presents ab initio calculations taken to study the electronic structure, phonon
spectrum, and electron-phonon coupling factor G (T e) of several metals (Ag, Au, Pd, Pt, Rh …
