Effect of anisotropic strain on the charge dynamics of Nd0.5Sr0.5MnO3 thin films

Room temperature optical anisotropy of a LaMnO3 thin-film induced by ultra-short pulse laser

“…Figure 2 shows the change in transmittance, DT, induced by the pump pulse as a function of time delay (s) between the pump pulse and the probe pulse. The sharp features around the zero-time-delay (s ¼ 0) are due to artifact, 12 and the exponential decrease (or increase) at a finite s is due to charge excitation and relaxation processes.…”
