Nonlinear photomagnetization in insulators
Bernardo S. Mendoza, Norberto Arzate-Plata, Nicolas Tancogne-Dejean +1
Nonlinear photomagnetization is a process by which an oscillating electric field induces a static magnetization. We show that all 32 crystallographic point groups admit such spin p…

Insulating moiré homobilayers lack a threefold symmetric second harmonic generation
Luis Enrique Rosas-Hernandez, Jose Luis Cabellos, Angiolo Huamán +2
Atoms within moiré bilayers relax in-plane to minimize elastic energy [e.g., Cazeaux et al., J. Elast. 154, 443 (2023)]; such relaxation brings their space group symmetries down t…

Substrate interference and strain in the second harmonic generation from MoSe monolayers
S. Puri, S. Patel, J. L. Cabellos +4
Nonlinear optical materials of atomic thickness--such as non-centrosymmetric 2H transition metal dichalcogenide monolayers--have a second order nonlinear susceptibility (…
