Photoinduced Enhancement of the Charge Density Wave Amplitude

A. Singer, S. K. K. Patel, R. Kukreja +14

Symmetry breaking and the emergence of order is one of the most fascinating phenomena in condensed matter physics. It leads to a plethora of intriguing ground states found in antif…

Phase separation in the non-equilibrium Verwey transition in magnetite

Francesco Randi, Ignacio Vergara, Fabio Novelli +9

We present equilibrium and out-of-equilibrium studies of the Verwey transition in magnetite. In the equilibrium optical conductivity, we find a step-like change at the phase transi…

Generation of high-frequency strain waves during femtosecond demagnetization of Fe/MgO films

T. Henighan, M. Trigo, S. Bonetti +22

We use femtosecond time-resolved hard x-ray scattering to detect coherent acoustic phonons excited during ultrafast laser demagnetization of bcc Fe films. We determine the lattice…

X-Ray Detection of Transient Magnetic Moments Induced by a Spin Current in Cu

R. Kukreja, S. Bonetti, Z. Chen +7

We have used a MHz lock-in x-ray spectro-microscopy technique to directly detect changes of magnetic moments in Cu due to spin injection from an adjacent Co layer. The elemental an…
