Spin-phonon dispersion in magnetic materials
Mingqiang Gu, Y. H. Bai, G. P. Zhang +1
Microscopic coupling between the electron spin and the lattice vibration is responsible for an array of exotic properties from morphic effects in simple magnets to magnetodielectri…
First-principles insights into all-optical spin switching in the half-metallic Heusler ferrimagnet MnRuGa
G. P. Zhang, Y. H. Bai, M. S. Si +1
All-optical spin switching (AOS) represents a new frontier in magnetic storage technology -- spin manipulation without a magnetic field, -- but its underlying working principle is…
Optically- and thermally-driven huge lattice orbital and spin angular momenta from spinning fullerenes
G. P. Zhang, Y. H. Bai, Thomas F. George
Lattice vibration in solids may carry angular momentum. But unlike the intrinsic spin of electrons, the lattice vibration is rarely rotational. To induce angular momentum, one need…
Correlation Between Spin and Orbital Dynamics During Laser-Induced Femtosecond Demagnetization
G. P. Zhang, Mingqiang Gu, Y. H. Bai +2
Spin and orbital angular momenta are two intrinsic properties of an electron and are responsible for the physics of a solid. How the spin and orbital evolve with respect to each ot…
Spin Berry points as crucial for ultrafast demagnetization
G. P. Zhang, Y. H. Bai, Thomas F. George
Laser-induced ultrafast demagnetization has puzzled researchers around the world for over two decades. Intrinsic complexity in electronic, magnetic, and phononic subsystems is diff…
External light control of three-dimensional ultrashort far-infrared pulses in an inhomogeneous array of carbon nanotubes
Eduard G. Fedorov, Alexander V. Zhukov, Roland Bouffanais +8
We present a study of the propagation of three-dimensional (3D) bipolar electromagnetic ultrashort pulses in an inhomogeneous array of semiconductor carbon nanotubes (CNTs) in the…
