Ultrafast dynamics and evolution of ion-induced opacity in transparent dielectrics
Recently, measurements of few-picosecond (ps, 10 ^−12 s) pulses of laser-driven protons were realised by the observation of transient opacity in SiO _2 . This ultrafast response could be understood by the formation of self-trapped excitonic states in the material, creating a rapid de-excitation chan...
