Ultrafast X-ray diffraction probe of terahertz field-driven soft mode dynamics in SrTiO(3)

We use ultrafast X-ray pulses to characterize the lattice response of SrTiO(3) when driven by strong terahertz fields. We observe transient changes in the diffraction intensity with a delayed onset with respect to the driving field. Fourier analysis reveals two frequency components corresponding to...

description We use ultrafast X-ray pulses to characterize the lattice response of SrTiO(3) when driven by strong terahertz fields. We observe transient changes in the diffraction intensity with a delayed onset with respect to the driving field. Fourier analysis reveals two frequency components corresponding to the two lowest energy zone-center optical modes in SrTiO(3). The lower frequency mode exhibits clear softening as the temperature is decreased while the higher frequency mode shows slight temperature dependence.
