Light Quantum Control of Persisting Higgs Modes in Iron-Based Superconductors

C. Vaswani, J. H. Kang, M. Mootz +12

The Higgs mechanism, i.e., spontaneous symmetry breaking of the quantum vacuum, is a cross-disciplinary principle, universal for understanding dark energy, antimatter and quantum m…

Discovery of Light-induced Metastable Martensitic Anomaly Controlled by Single-Cycle Terahertz Pulses

X. Yang, B. Song, C. Vaswani +9

We report on an ultrafast photoinduced phase transition with a strikingly long-lived Martensitic anomaly driven by above-threshold single-cycle terahertz (THz) pulses in NbSn.…

Coherent Band-Edge Oscillations and Dynamic LO Phonon Mode Splitting as Evidence for Polaronic Coupling in Perovskites

Z. Liu, C. Vaswani, L. Luo +12

The coherence of collective modes, such as phonons, and their modulation of the electronic states are long sought in complex systems, which is a cross-cutting issue in photovoltaic…

Discovery of Terahertz Second Harmonic Generation from Lightwave Acceleration of Symmetry--Breaking Nonlinear Supercurrents

C. Vaswani, C. Sundahl, M. Mootz +11

We report terahertz (THz) second harmonic generation (SHG) in superconductors (SC) with inversion symmetric equilibrium states that forbid even-order nonlinearities. Such SHG signa…

Ultrafast Control of Excitonic Rashba Fine Structure by Phonon Coherences in a Metal Halide Perovskite CHNHPbI

Z. Liu, C. Vaswani, X. Yang +14

We discover hidden Rashba fine structure in CHNHPbI and demonstrate its quantum control by vibrational coherence through symmetry-selective vibronic (electron-phonon) c…

Competing Orders and Ultrafast Energy Transfer at the Quantum Limit in a NbSn Superconductor Probed by Terahertz Electrodynamics

X. Yang, X. Zhao, C. Vaswani +10

We report the low-energy electrodynamics of a moderately clean A15 superconductor (SC) following ultrafast excitation to understand and manipulate terahertz (THz) quasi--particle (…
