![]() | Vardeny, Zeev Valentine | Excited-state relaxation in ∏-conjugated polymers | We study ultrafast relaxation processes of odd- (Bu) and even-parity (Ag) exciton states in poly(p-phenylene vinylene) derivatives. The Bu states are studied using a regular two-beam pump-and-probe spectroscopy, which can monitor vibronic relaxation and exciton diffusion. In order to observe the A... | Ultrafast relaxation; Excited-state relaxation; pi-conjugated polymers; PPV | 2002-05 |

![]() | Vardeny, Zeev Valentine | Exciton dynamics in single-walled nanotubes: transient photoinduced dichroism and polarized emission | Ultrafast relaxation of photoexcitations in semiconducting single-walled carbon nanotubes (S-NTs) were investigated using polarized pump-probe photomodulation (with 150 fs time resolution) and cw polarized photoluminescence (PL). Both annealed and unannealed thin NT films and D2O solutions of isola... | Exciton dynamics; Single-walled carbon nanotubes; SWNT; Transient photoinduced dichroism; Polarized emission; Ultrafast relaxation; Photoexcitations | 2005-03 |

![]() | Vardeny, Zeev Valentine | Studies of picosecond carrier dynamics in polysilane alloys: evidence for geminate recombination in small hydrogenated amorphous silicon clusters | The ultrafast photocarrier dynamics in polysilane alloys amorphous (SiH2)n' has been studied using the picosecond photoinduced absorption (PA) technique. For excitation below the optical gap, the PA response decays exponentially and is faster at low temperatures. This is interpreted in terms of e-h ... | Picosecond carrier dynamics; Polysilane alloys; Geminate recombination; a-Si:H; Amorphous silicon; Ultrafast relaxation; Photoexcited carriers | 1990 |
