The desorption of atoms or molecules from solid surfaces is a key step in heterogeneous
catalysis, photocatalysis, electrochemistry, and surface nanochemistry. The breaking of a …

An electron added to a solvent polarizes its surrounding medium to minimize the free
energy. Such an electron with its polarization cloud, which we refer to as the solvated …

We review recent work in the study of interfacial electronic states and electron–adsorbate
interactions with time-and angle-resolved two-photon photoemission (2PPE) spectroscopy …

Optical fields interacting with solids excite single particle quantum transitions and elicit
collective screening responses that define their penetration, absorption, and reflection. The …

The coupling of electronic excitations at surfaces to the bulk material is the key to a variety of
dynamical processes. It governs very diverse phenomena such as charge transfer across …

Ultrafast charge delocalization dynamics in excited states of internal donor–acceptor
copolymer poly [2, 7-(9, 9-bis (2-ethylhexyl)-dibenzosilole)-alt-4, 7-bis (thiophen-2-yl) benzo …

Two of the primary hurdles facing organic electronics and photovoltaics are their low charge
mobility and the inability to disentangle morphological and molecular effects on charge …

The interaction of an excess electron with a polar molecular environment is well known as
electron solvation. This process is characterized by an energetic stabilization and by …

Ultrafast interfacial electron transfer from the donor orbital of organic chromophores into
empty electronic acceptor states of a semiconductor and of a metal was investigated by two …

We use near edge X-ray absorption fine structure (NEXAFS) and resonant Auger
spectroscopy combined with density functional theory (DFT) to investigate the electronic …
