THz-induced phonon mode mixing and collective dynamics in a polar nanolattice
Elizabeth Skoropata, Peter M. Derlet, Hiroki Ueda +13
Manipulating phonons through symmetry is a fundamental approach to alter the dynamic responses of materials. Most often new phases are sought through control of the unit-cell (e.g.…
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…
Ultrafast selective mid-infrared sublattice manipulation in the ferrimagnet
Davide Soranzio, Matteo Savoini, Fabian Graf +6
is a ferrimagnet with two oppositely ordered spin sublattices (Fe and Cr), connected via superexchange interaction, giving a non-zero net magnetic moment. We show, usin…
High-power femtosecond mid-IR source with tunable center frequency and chirp
Larissa Boie, Benjamin H. Strudwick, Rafael T. Winkler +2
We present an experimental implementation of a chirped mid-infrared (mid-IR) high-power laser source with variable center frequency between 4 THz to 30 THz and continuously tunable…
