Femtosecond response of polyatomic molecules to ultra-intense hard X-rays

Rudenko, A. ; Inhester, L. ; Hanasaki, K. ; ... - Nature (London)

We report x-ray free-electron lasers enable the investigation of the structure and dynamics of diverse systems, including atoms, molecules, nanocrystals and single bioparticles, under extreme conditions. Many imaging applications that target biological systems and complex materials use hard X-ray pulses with extremely high peak intensities (exceeding 10 ²⁰ watts per square centimetre). However, fundamental investigations have focused mainly on the individual response of atoms and small molecules using soft X-rays with much lower intensities. Studies with intense X-ray pulses have shown that irradiated atoms reach a very high degree of ionization, owing to multiphoton absorption, which in a heteronuclear molecularmore »« less

Femtosecond electronic response of atoms to ultra-intense x-rays.

Young, L. ; Kanter, E .P. ; Li, Y. ; ... - Nature

An era of exploring the interactions of high-intensity, hard X-rays with matter has begun with the start-up of a hard-X-ray free-electron laser, the Linac Coherent Light Source (LCLS). Understanding how electrons in matter respond to ultra-intense X-ray radiation is essential for all applications. Here we reveal the nature of the electronic response in a free atom to unprecedented high-intensity, short-wavelength, high-fluence radiation (respectively 10{sup 18} W cm{sup -2}, 1.5-0.6 nm, {approx}10{sup 5} X-ray photons per {angstrom}{sup 2}). At this fluence, the neon target inevitably changes during the course of a single femtosecond-duration X-ray pulse - by sequentially ejecting electrons -more »« less

Ultra-broadband Femtosecond Measurements of the Photo-inducedPhase transition in VO2: from the mid-IR to the hard X-rays

Cavalleri, A. ; Rini, M. ; Schoenlein, R.W. - Journal of Physical Society of Japan

We review our work on the photo-induced insulator-metaltransition in the strongly correlated, spin-Peierls compound VO2. Ourpump-probe experiments exploit the full spectral range of modernfemtosecond science, combining time-resolved mid-IR and visibletechniques with ultrafast soft x-ray absorption and hard x-raydiffraction. We also report on the switching behavior of VO2nanoparticles embedded in Silica or in optical fibers, a new route toincorporate complex, photo-active materials into technologically viableenvironments.

Hard X-ray emission by clusters in an intense femtosecond laser field during collective recombination

Krainov, V. P., E-mail: vpkrainov@mail.ru ; Sofronov, A. V. - Journal of Experimental and Theoretical Physics

We consider the new mechanism of X-ray generation by clusters under irradiation by femtosecond laser pulses, the so-called collective photorecombination. We develop the theory of the photo-recombination of electrons that pass from atomic clusters at the outer ionization to the ground level of a homogeneously charged cluster. Such a cluster is considered to be a quantum potential well. The dipole approximation is inapplicable for this process. We conclude that X-ray photons in collective photorecombination on a charged cluster as a whole have an energy that is much larger than that for photorecombination on separate atomic ions inside the cluster.
