Exciton spectroscopy of rare-gas solids and of rare-gas clusters

摘要

Abstract: Highlights concerning the creation and the decay dynamics of excitons in rare-gas solids and in solid rare-gas clusters will be presented. The decay dynamics include exciton transport, exciton trapping and exciton-induced desorption. Pronounced quantum-size effects are observed in rare-gas clusters. Recent experimental results on electronic excitations in condensed He, obtained from liquid He-clusters in a supersonic beam will be included.!42
