Anomalous Optical Drag
Chitram Banerjee, Yakov Solomons, A. Nicholas Black +5
A moving dielectric medium can displace the optical path of light passing through it, a phenomenon known as the Fresnel-Fizeau optical drag effect. The resulting displacement is pr…

Ultra-fast Double Pulse All-Optical Re-switching of a Ferrimagnet
C. Banerjee, K. Rode, G. Atcheson +4
All-optical re-switching has been investigated in the half-metallic Heusler ferrimagnet Mn2Ru0.9Ga, where Mn atoms occupy two inequivalent sites in the XA-type structure. The effec…

Single pulse all-optical toggle switching of magnetization without Gd: The example of Mn2RuxGa
C. Banerjee, N. Teichert, K. Siewierska +6
Energy-efficient control of magnetization without the help of a magnetic field is a key goal of spintronics. Purely heat-induced single-pulse all-optical toggle switching has been…
