Manipulating magnetism by ultrafast control of the exchange interaction
Johan. H. Mentink
In recent years, the optical control of exchange interactions has emerged as an exciting new direction in the study of the ultrafast optical control of magnetic order. Here we revi…

Laser-driven quantum magnonics and THz dynamics of the order parameter in antiferromagnets
D. Bossini, S. Dal Conte, O. Gomonay +8
The impulsive generation of two-magnon modes in antiferromagnets by femtosecond optical pulses, so-called femto-nanomagnons, leads to coherent longitudinal oscillations of the anti…

Designing spin and orbital exchange Hamiltonians with ultrashort electric field transients
Martin Eckstein, Johan H. Mentink, Philipp Werner
We demonstrate how electric fields with arbitrary time profile can be used to control the time-dependent parameters of spin and orbital exchange Hamiltonians. Analytic expressions…
