Sub-nanometre resolution of atomic motion during electronic excitation in phase-change materials
Phase-change materials based on Ge-Sb-Te alloys are widely used in industrial applications such as nonvolatile memories, but reaction pathways for crystalline-to-amorphous phase-change on picosecond timescales remain unknown. Femtosecond laser excitation

Beyond a phenomenological description of magnetostriction
Although magnetostriction is universal in magnetic materials, understanding its microscopic origin remains challenging. Here the authors use X-ray and ultrafast electron diffraction to separate the material’s sub-picosecond spin and lattice responses and
