Deutsche Forschungsgemeinschaft (DFG) - Project number 510943930
This project aims at providing an experimental basis for a thorough characterization of the electronic and vibrational heat energy and its transport within nanoscale metals and adjacent molecules including solvents upon optical excitation of the metal. Theoretical modelling will help to bridge ultrafast pump-probe dynamics with stationary non-equilibrium situations for continuous wave excitation, taking into account the quantum nature of the system.
