Quantum matter hosts spectacular excited-state and nonequilibrium effects, but many of these phenomena are still technologically underexplored. In this talk for the Virtual Science Forum, Prineha Narang discusses the microscopic dynamics, decoherence and optically-excited collective phenomena in quantum matter at finite temperatures.

Recent years have seen tremendous progress in utilizing ultrafast light-matter interaction to control the macroscopic properties of quantum materials [1]. Many of the most intriguing effects are based on nonthermal pathways, with the material (quantum many-body system) being driven away from its thermal equilibrium by strong laser pulses ...
