In-plane optically tunable magnetic states in 2D materials via tailored femtosecond laser driving
Shuang Liu, Oren Cohen, Peng Chen +1
It is well established that light can control magnetism in matter, e.g. via the inverse Faraday effect or ultrafast demagnetization. However, such control is typically limited to m…
Photoelectron chiral dichroism induced by lasers without helicity via chiral hole wave-packets
Gal Bouskila, Avner Fleischer, Ofer Neufeld
Photoelectron circular dichroism (PECD) is a method where randomly oriented chiral molecules are photoionized due to irradiation by circularly-polarized lasers, yielding large chir…
Probing broken time-reversal symmetry with tailored-light photocurrents
Daniel M. B. Lesko, Tobias Weitz, Simon Wittigschlager +4
Light-field-driven photocurrents represent a powerful tool for generating photocurrents without external bias in light-matter systems that lack inversion symmetry. While these phot…
New photonic conservation laws in parametric nonlinear optics
Gavriel Lerner, Matan Even Tzur, Ofer Neufeld +2
Conservation laws are one of the most generic and useful concepts in physics. In nonlinear optical parametric processes, conservation of photonic energy, momenta and parity often l…
Tunable Tesla-scale magnetic attosecond pulses through ring-current gating
Alba de las Heras, Franco P. Bonafé, Carlos Hernández-García +2
Coherent control over electron dynamics in atoms and molecules using high-intensity circularly-polarized laser pulses gives rise to current loops, resulting in the emission of magn…
