Critical slowing of the spin and charge density wave order in thin film Cr following photoexcitation

Sheena K. K. Patel, Oleg Yu. Gorobtsov, Devin Cela +11

We report on the evolution of the charge density wave (CDW) and spin density wave (SDW) order of a chromium film following photoexcitation with an ultrafast optical laser pulse. Th…

Proton distribution visualization in perovskite nickelate devices utilizing nanofocused X-rays

Ivan A. Zaluzhnyy, Peter O. Sprau, Richard Tran +17

We use a 30-nm x-ray beam to study the spatially resolved properties of a SmNiO-based nanodevice that is doped with protons. The x-ray absorption spectra supported by density-f…

Ultrafast perturbation of magnetic domains by optical pumping in a ferromagnetic multilayer

Dmitriy Zusin, Ezio Iacocca, Loïc Le Guyader +23

Ultrafast optical pumping of spatially nonuniform magnetic textures is known to induce far-from-equilibrium spin transport effects. Here, we use ultrafast x-ray diffraction with un…

Non-equilibrium phase precursors to the insulator-metal transition in V2O3

Andrej Singer, Juan Gabriel Ramirez, Ilya Valmianski +11

The discovery of novel phases of matter is at the core of modern physics. In quantum materials, subtle variations in atomic-scale interactions can induce dramatic changes in macros…

Nucleation of dislocations and their dynamics in layered oxides cathode materials during battery charging

A. Singer, S. Hy, M. Zhang +15

Defects and their interactions in crystalline solids often underpin material properties and functionality as they are decisive for stability, result in enhanced diffusion, and act…
