Quantifying angular momentum of coherently driven circular phonons
Roman Mankowsky, Serhane Zerdane, Shih-Wen Huang +9
The use of intense terahertz (THz) pulses to manipulate low-energy excitations offers a powerful approach for ultrafast control of electronic and magnetic properties in materials.…
Chemical and optical control of chiral-domain dynamics in 1T-TaS
Qingzheng Qiu, Mengxian Zhao, Roman Mankowsky +14
Optical control of symmetry-breaking quantum phases is often constrained when one domain is strongly favored in equilibrium. This limitation is exemplified by the chiral charge-den…
A textured polar phase in strained SrTiO3
Huaiyu Hugo Wang, Ernesto Flores, Jade Stanton +11
Quantum materials can harbour hidden phases whose microscopic structures differ from conventional ordered states while reproducing their macroscopic signatures, making them easy to…
Ultrafast Decoherence of Charge Density Waves in KMoO
Rafael T. Winkler, Larissa Boie, Yunpei Deng +20
Recent works have suggested that transient suppression of a charge density wave (CDW) by an ultra-short excitation can lead to an inversion of the CDW phase. We experimentally inve…
