Femtosecond relaxation dynamics in collective-electronic-state materials: cuprate and iron-pnictide superconductors and charge-density wave systems

Author(s): Ljupka Stojčevska (Author), Tomaž Mertelj (Supervisor), Dragan Mihailović (Co-Supervisor)

Year: 2013

Type: Doctoral dissertation

This thesis covers a study of the photoexcited relaxation dynamics in superconducting ironbased pnictides, cuprates and charge-density wave systems by means of femtosecond laser spectroscopy. To examine the temperature and fluence dependence of photoinduced reflectivity transients ΔR/R in iron-based pnictides and cuprates, we apply a standard double pump-probe technique, while …

Phase separation in a 2D charged system

Author(s): Joaquin Gabriel Miranda Mena (Author), Viktor Kabanov (Supervisor), Tomaž Mertelj (Co-Supervisor)

Year: 2010

Type: Doctoral dissertation

The main purpose of this thesis is to describe the inhomogeneous phase of a layered system. The phase is the result of the competition between attractive interactions and the long range Coulomb repulsive force (LRCF). In order to achieve this, two different strategies are applied. The first is within the …
