Abstract

A quick look at electron states Angle-resolved photoelectron spectroscopy (ARPES) is widely used to study the electronic structure of crystalline solids such as high-temperature superconductors, topological insulators and graphene-based materials. Time-resolved ARPES has opened the door to the study of the response of such electronic features on ultrafast timescales. Now Rohwer et al. add a new dimension. Using high photon energies, they are able to study ultrafast dynamics at high momenta, at which some of the most interesting fundamental phenomena occur. Applying the technique to the charge density wave material 1T-TiSe2, they obtain stroboscopic images of the electronic band structure at high momentum and show that atomic-scale periodic long-scale order collapses on a surprisingly short timescale of 20 femtoseconds. This work reveals rapid response times in photoinduced properties that could stimulate research into new types of ultrafast switching device.
