8th Trieste-Ljubljana-Zagreb Meeting

Seminar Start Time: 09:30

Europe/Rome Barbara Rossi (Elettra Sincrotrone Trieste) Abstract: Raman spectroscopy is a non-destructive experimental technique widely implemented in the laboratories for the molecular characterization of several kind of systems, including condensed matter, liquids, gels, aqueous solutions, polymers and bio-macromolecules, through the investigation of their vibrational dynamics. Thanks to the resonance effect, UV Resonance Raman (UVRR) spectroscopy offers several advantages with respect to conventional visible Raman technique, such as the significant increment of the detection limit and the selectivity needed to incisively monitor specific chromospheres within the sample. This determines the usefulness of UVRR spectroscopy as highly sensitive and selective spectral probe for exploring the structure and dynamics of complex molecular systems. However, the full exploitation of UVRR has so far been limited by the lack of extended and tuneable excitation sources in the UV range that allow to finely approach the resonance conditions of specific targeted molecular groups. In this seminar, we would like to give an overview on the opportunities offered by the unique in the world UVRR setup working with the synchrotron radiation (SR) source available at the BL10.2-IUVS beamline (Elettra synchrotron facility, Trieste, Italy). The SR-based UVRR set-up at Elettra enables to perform UVRR experiments with a fine tuneable source in the range of excitation wavelengths 200-270 nm, resulting in an innovative spectroscopy facility for approaching open issues in physics, chemistry, materials and life sciences. Selected case studies will be discussed in order to show the useful of SR-based UVRR method and the areas of interactions with other research interests. Zoom registration link will follow in due time. Hybrid Seminar ICTP pio@ictp.it

CMSP Seminar (Atomistic Simulation Webinar Series):Frontiers of synchrotron-based UV Resonance Raman spectroscopy for exploring molecular systems

Room: Room H (Leonardo Building) + Zoom

Speaker(s): Barbara Rossi (Elettra Sincrotrone Trieste)

Seminar Start Time: 11:00

Europe/Rome An ICTP Meeting in presence This Workshop is held in Trieste every two years, since 1987, and is devoted to recent advances in condensed matter physics and materials science, based on realistic calculations of the electronic structure of complex systems. The aim is a critical discussion of methods and challenging applications. It has become one of the most popular regular events of the international ab-initio electronic structure community. This event also has the ambition to reach out to countries where the electronic structure community is not traditionally as strong as in Europe, the USA and Japan, in coherence with the mission of its host institution, the ICTP. The workshop will also include the Award ceremony for the "Walter Kohn prize for quantum mechanical material modeling" (https://www.ictp.it/about-ictp/prizes-awards/walter-kohn-prize.aspx), co-funded by ICTP and the Quantum ESPRESSO Foundation. Topics will span a broad range, including, among others: Spectroscopy Strong electronic correlations Electron-phonon coupling Superconductivity Novel functionals Transport Advanced Materials Materials Discovery Machine Learning Quantum Computing Confirmed speakers: N.

**DEADLINE: 05/01/2023**

Europe/Rome An ICTP Meeting in presence Low-dimensional quantum systems continue to be an exciting area of research. The frontiers have been continuously pushed forward by fabricating novel materials and developing experimental techniques that provide a gateway for exploring new physics. Examples of such new endeavors include hydrodynamic phenomena in interacting electron systems in ultra-pure materials; driven quantum systems, where strong light-matter interactions can lead to novel states of matter; generation and control of entangled states in low-dimensional devices; emergent correlated phases in novel low-dimensional materials and structures (e.g., twisted graphene). The main goal of this event will be to nurture collaborations and exchange of knowledge among researchers, advanced students and postdocs of different continents and subfields. The activities will highlight recent progress in this area in topics including, but not limited to: Electronic hydrodynamics Driven/dissipative systems and light-matter interaction Low-dimensional devices and disorder Topological systems Emergent phases in novel materials The “Conference and Advanced School on Low-Dimensional Quantum Systems” will take place in Santiago, Chile, from March 13 to March 24, 2023. The event will combine a set of lectures and talks during the two weeks and will be a meeting point for researchers worldwide. Lecturers: G.
