Metallic nanostructures exhibit localized surface plasmons (LSPs), which offer
unprecedented opportunities for advanced photonic materials and devices. Following …

In the last decade, there has been a proliferation of laser sources for time-and angle-
resolved photoemission spectroscopy (TR-ARPES), building on the proven capability of this …

Interactions among and between electrons and phonons steer the energy flow in photo-
excited materials and govern the emergence of correlated phases. The strength of electron …

Dynamic metasurfaces have emerged as a disruptive change in the way the response of
optical systems can be tailored by combining the flexibility of flat optics in spatially …

We report on a pump wavelength-dependent study of electron–phonon relaxation in
colloidal solutions of isolated gold nanospheres and nanorods. We varied the pump …

Valley degrees of freedom in transition metal dichalcogenides thoroughly influence electron–
phonon coupling and its nonequilibrium dynamics. We conducted a first-principles study of …

Starting from the ab initio many-body theory of electrons and phonons, we go through a
series of well defined simplifications to derive a set of coupled equations of motion for the …

We report a theoretical investigation of the ultrafast dynamics of electrons and phonons in
strained monolayer WS2 following photoexcitation. We show that strain substantially …

Ultrafast plasmonics is driving growing interest for the search of novel plasmonic materials,
overcoming the main limitations of noble metals. In this framework, titanium nitride (TiN) is …

Processes involving ultrafast laser driven electron-phonon dynamics play a fundamental
role in the response of quantum systems in a growing number of situations of interest, as …
