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…

Dimensionality reduction of optically generated vortex strings in a charge density wave
Sajal Dahal, Alex H. Miller, Viktor Krapivin +11
In phase transitions, mesoscale structures such as topological defects, vortex strings, and domain walls control the path towards equilibrium, and thus the functional properties of…
