Ferroelastic domain switching by ultrafast photoinduced strain
Daniel G. Lourens, Maarten Kwaaitaal, Carl S. Davies +1
The crystal lattice underpins the fundamental properties of condensed matter, with ferroic order emerging sensitively from atomic coordination. Manipulating the lattic therefore pr…
Single-pulse strain-induced precessional dynamics of magnetization in Co-doped iron garnet
Héloïse Damas, Carl S. Davies, Tomasz Zalewski +4
Ultrafast control of magnetization through lattice excitation provides a route to manipulating magnetic order on short timescales, yet the role of transient strain in driving magne…
A crystal-field route to THz-driven magnetization
T. Zalewski, M. S. Mrudul, Y. Lee +5
Light carries angular momentum, but the microscopic pathways that transform it into magnetization remain elusive. Here we establish that crystal-field excitations, historically vie…
Optical switching of antiferromagnetic domains by nonreciprocal heat current
Takeshi Hayashida, Shunsuke Izumikawa, Kenta Kimura +2
What distinguishes front from back? In physics, such directionality emerges only when an underlying symmetry is broken. Antiferromagnets that inherently break both space-inversion…
Photoinduced strain and polarization switching in barium titanate in the far-infrared spectral range
Maarten Kwaaitaal, Daniel Lourens, Carl S. Davies +1
Short mid-infrared laser pulses efficiently facilitate ultrafast manipulation of ferroic order parameters, including full reversal of magnetization or ferroelectric polarization, w…
Photo-induced switching of magnetisation in the epsilon-near-zero regime
Héloïse Damas, Carl S. Davies, Petr M. Vetoshko +3
The possibility of controlling spins using ultrashort light and strain pulses has triggered intense discussions about the mechanisms responsible for magnetic re-ordering. All-optic…
Disentangling thermal birefringence and strain in the all-optical switching of ferroelectric polarization
Maarten Kwaaitaal, Daniel G. Lourens, Carl S. Davies +1
Recent works have demonstrated that the optical excitation of crystalline materials with intense narrow-band infrared pulses, tailored to match the frequencies at which the crystal…
Photoinduced phase switching at a Mott insulator-to-metal transition
K. S. Rabinovich, A. N. Yaresko, R. D. Dawson +5
Achieving fundamental understanding of insulator-to-metal transitions (IMTs) in strongly correlated systems and their persistent and reversible control via nonequilibrium drive are…
All-optical spin switching probability in [Tb/Co] multilayers
Luis Avilés-Félix, Louis Farcis, Zebin Jin +10
Since the first experimental observation of all-optical switching phenomena, intensive research has been focused on finding suitable magnetic systems that can be integrated as stor…
Electrically tunable detector of THz-frequency signals based on an antiferromagnet
A. Safin, V. Puliafito, M. Carpentieri +6
A concept of an electrically tunable resonance detector of THz-frequency signals based on antiferromagnetic/heavy metal (AFM/HM) hetero-structure is proposed. The conversion of a T…
