Collective behaviour in solids lies at the origin of several cooperative phenomena that can lead to profound transformations, instabilities and phase transitions. Revealing the dynamics of collective excitations is a topic of pivotal importance in contemporary condensed matter physics, as it provides information on the strength and spatial distribution of interactions and correlation. The experimental framework explored in this book relies on setting a material out-of-equilibrium by an ultrashort laser pulse and monitoring the photo-induced changes in its optical properties over a broad spectral region in the visible or deep-ultraviolet. Collective excitations (e.g. plasmons, excitons, phonons?) emerge either in the frequency domain as spectral features across the probed range, or in the time domain as coherent modes triggered by the pump pulse. Mapping the temporal evolution of these collective excitations provides access to the hierarchy of low-energy phenomena occurring in the solid during its path towards thermodynamic equilibrium. This methodology is used to investigate a number of strongly interacting and correlated materials with an increasing degree of internal complexity beyond conventional band theory. 410 0$aSpringer Theses, Recognizing Outstanding Ph.D. Research,$x2190-5053 606 $aSuperconductivity 606 $aSuperconductors 606 $aSpectroscopy 606 $aMicroscopy 606 $aQuantum physics 606 $aPhysical chemistry 606 $aStrongly Correlated Systems, Superconductivity$3https://scigraph.springernature.com/ontologies/product-market-codes/P25064 606 $aSpectroscopy and Microscopy$3https://scigraph.springernature.com/ontologies/product-market-codes/P31090 606 $aQuantum Physics$3https://scigraph.springernature.com/ontologies/product-market-codes/P19080 606 $aSpectroscopy/Spectrometry$3https://scigraph.springernature.com/ontologies/product-market-codes/C11020 606 $aPhysical Chemistry$3https://scigraph.springernature.com/ontologies/product-market-codes/C21001 615 0$aSuperconductivity. 615 0$aSuperconductors. 615 0$aSpectroscopy. 615 0$aMicroscopy. 615 0$aQuantum physics. 615 0$aPhysical chemistry. 615 14$aStrongly Correlated Systems, Superconductivity. 615 24$aSpectroscopy and Microscopy. 615 24$aQuantum Physics. 615 24$aSpectroscopy/Spectrometry. 615 24$aPhysical Chemistry. 676 $a530 700 $aBaldini$b Edoardo$4aut$4http://id.loc.gov/vocabulary/relators/aut$01062190 906 $aBOOK 912 $a9910300543203321 996 $aNonequilibrium Dynamics of Collective Excitations in Quantum Materials$92523332 997 $aUNINA
