Abstract
We report on localized nonlinear lattice deformation and nanoscale structural rearrangement in methylammonium lead triiodide films triggered by the combined action of light and voltage. These effects, revealed by second harmonic piezoresponse force microscopy, are connected with organic cation motion, implicating localized cation migration as a key contributor to perovskite optoelectronic device instability under operating conditions.

Abstract
It has recently been demonstrated that the impact of individual, slow but highly charged ions on various surfaces can induce surface modifications with nanometer dimensions. Generally, the size of these surface modifications (blisters, hillocks, craters or pits) increases dramatically with the potential energy of the highly charged ion, while the kinetic energy of the projectile ions seems to be of little importance. This paper presents the currently available experimental evidence and theoretical models and discusses the circumstances and conditions under which nanosized features on different surfaces due to the impact of slow highly charged ions can be produced.

Abstract
The individual impacts of slow (300 eV/amu) highly charged Xe ions induce nanometer sized pitlike structures on the KBr (001) surface. The volume of these structures shows a strong dependence on the ions potential energy. Total potential sputter yields from atomically flat (001) terraces are determined by imaging single ion impact sites. The dependence of the sputter yield on the ions initial charge state combined with structure formation at low and high-fluence irradiations indicates that agglomeration of defects into complex centers plays a major role in the desorption process induced by the potential energy.

Abstract
We review recent developments in controlling photoinduced desorption processes of alkali halides. We focus primarily on hyperthermal desorption of halogen atoms and show that the yield, electronic state, and velocity distributions of desorbed atoms can be selected using tunable laser excitation. We demonstrate that the observed control is due to preferential excitation of surface excitons. This approach takes advantage of energetic differences between surface and bulk exciton states and probes the surface exciton directly. We demonstrate that desorption of these materials leads to controlled modification of their surface geometric and electronic structures. We then extend the exciton mechanism of desorption, developed for alkali halides, to metal oxide surfaces, in particular magnesium oxide. In addition, these results demonstrate that laser desorption can serve as a solid-state source of halogen and oxygen atoms, in well-defined electronic and velocity states, for studying chemical processes in the gas phase and at surfaces.

Abstract
We demonstrate laser control of the electronic product state distribution of photodesorbed halogen atoms from alkali halide crystals. Our general model of surface exciton desorption dynamics is developed into a simple method for laser control of the relative halogen atom spin-orbit laser desorption yield. By tuning the excitation laser photon energy in a narrow region of the absorption threshold, the yield of excited state chorine atoms, Cl(2P(1/2)), can be made to vary from near 0 to 80% for KCl and from near 0 to 50% for NaCl relative to the total yield of Cl atoms. We describe the physical properties necessary to obtain a high degree of product state control and the limitation induced when these requirements are not met. These results demonstrate that laser control can be applied to solid state surface reactions and provide strong support for surface exciton-based desorption models.

Abstract
Low-energy (5-15 eV) electron- and photon-stimulated desorption of KI(100) yields I2P3/2 and 2P1/2 with hyperthermal (0.3 eV) and thermal velocity components. The desorption threshold for both components is 5.3 eV and is correlated with the gamma3/2-exciton long-wavelength edge. Exciton decay at the surface directly produces I2P3/2 and 2P1/2 with hyperthermal velocity and is in competition with self-trapping. Spin memory of the gamma-exciton hole-component is also evident in the hyperthermal channel. An exciton mediated desorption mechanism is presented which is general in alkali halides.

Abstract
Electron-stimulated desorption of the (100)KBr surface has been investigated in vacuum with noncontact atomic force microscopy and mass spectroscopy. It has been found that both desorption components (K and Br) show oscillatory dependence on the electron dose with the oscillation amplitude decaying gradually. These results correspond with periodically varying, as a result of a layer-by-layer desorption, surface topography. It is proposed that the surface terrace edges act as traps for excited F centers diffusing in the crystal. The oscillating density of terrace edges varies surface recombination/reflection rates for the F centers and modulates the balance between surface and bulk deexcitation of the crystal.
