Selective coupling of coherent phonons to intertwined charge-orbital and magnetic orders in doped manganites

X. Liu, M. Sander, S. -W. Huang +15

Strongly correlated materials feature technologically relevant functionalities such as high-temperature superconductivity and colossal magnetoresistance, which emerges from the com…

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.…

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.…

Emergent Antiphase Stacking in a Transient Charge Density Wave

Jade Stanton, Gal Orenstein, Ryan A. Duncan +14

Photoexcitation can induce novel states in materials that are inaccessible in equilibrium, a recent example being the light-induced charge density wave (CDW) observed in $\text{LaT…

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…

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…

Ultrafast surface melting of orbital order in La0.5Sr1.5MnO4

Maurizio Monti, Khalid M. Siddiqui, Daniel Perez-Salinas +12

Understanding how light modifies long-range order in quantum materials is key to improving our ability to control functionality. However, this is challenging if the response is het…
