Nonthermal phase transitions in semiconductors induced by a femtosecond extreme ultraviolet laser pulse

In this paper, we present a novel theoretical approach, which allows the study of nonequilibrium dynamics of both electrons and atoms/ions within free-electron laser excited semiconductors at femtosecond time scales. The approach consists of the Monte-Carlo method treating photoabsorption, high-ener...
