Dynamically suppressed lattice rotations in SrTiO as a basis for photo-induced ferroelectricity

Huaiyu Hugo Wang, Michael Fechner, Giovanni De Vecchi +22

Photo-induced ferroelectricity in the quantum paraelectric SrTiO involves the dynamical interplay between a coherently driven Ti-O stretching vibration and multiple structural…

Ultrafast transient increase of oxygen octahedral rotations in a perovskite

M. Porer, M. Fechner, M. Kubli +13

The ability to control the structure of a crystalline solid on ultrafast timescales bears enormous potential for information storage and manipulation or generating new functional s…

Search for the magnetic monopole at a magnetoelectric surface

Q. N. Meier, M. Fechner, T. Nozaki +11

We show, by solving Maxwell's equations, that an electric charge on the surface of a slab of a linear magnetoelectric material generates an image magnetic monopole below the surfac…

Probing the Interatomic Potential of Solids by Strong-Field Nonlinear Phononics

Alexander von Hoegen, Roman Mankowsky, Michael Fechner +2

Femtosecond optical pulses at mid-infrared frequencies have opened up the nonlinear control of lattice vibrations in solids. So far, all applications have relied on second order ph…

Optically induced lattice deformations, electronic structure changes, and enhanced superconductivity in YBa2Cu3O6.48

R. Mankowsky, M. Fechner, M. Först +10

Resonant optical excitation of apical oxygen vibrational modes in the normal state of underdoped YBa2Cu3O6+x induces a transient state with optical properties similar to those of t…

Quasi-static magnetoelectric quadrupoles as the order parameter for the pseudo-gap phase in cuprate superconductors

M. Fechner, M. J. A. Fierz, F. Thöle +2

We introduce a mechanism in which coupling between fluctuating spin magnetic dipole moments and polar optical phonons leads to a non-zero ferroic ordering of quasi-static magnetoel…
