Magnetically dependent plasmon drag in permalloy structures
arXiv:1909.02675
Abstract
Significant photovoltages are observed in permalloy grating-like structures in response to pulsed laser light illumination. Electric signals are enhanced at plasmon resonance conditions and show a clear dependence on the magnetic field with a characteristic hysteresis. Estimations show that the effect could not be explained solely by the laser-induced heating. Alternative mechanisms are discussed.
