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 …
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 …
