Symmetry-selective nonrelativistic spin splitting in antiferromagnets driven by coherent phonons

Sangeeta Rajpurohit, Mohsen Yarmohammadi, Sheikh Rubaiat Ul Haque +3

Nonrelativistic spin splitting (NRSS) in antiferromagnets (AFMs) enables magnetization-free spin polarization for ultrafast spintronics. Here, we demonstrate that coherent phonons…

Anomalous dynamical energy flows via nonlinear phononics in spin-Peierls chains

Jakob Dolgner, Dirk Manske, James K. Freericks +1

We investigate the nonequilibrium spin-phonon dynamics and energy cascades in a strongly dimerized spin-Peierls chain using a multi-tiered nonlinear phononics architecture. To bypa…

Interplay of nonrelativistic and relativistic spin splittings in altermagnets

Daegeun Jo, Peter M. Oppeneer, Mohsen Yarmohammadi

Despite their compensated magnetic moments, altermagnets (AMs) exhibit nonrelativistic spin splitting (NRSS) that offers routes to spintronic functionality without relying on relat…

Parity-selective spin splitting in coplanar antiferromagnets via bichromatic driving

Di Zhu, Zhongbo Yan, Mohsen Yarmohammadi

Parity is a central characteristic of momentum-dependent spin splitting in antiferromagnets (AFMs). Yet, intrinsic crystal symmetries typically restrict the splitting to either eve…

Chirped Floquet linear drives activate forbidden charge-to-spin conversions in Rashba two-dimensional electron gases

Mohsen Yarmohammadi

In Rashba two-dimensional electron gases (2DEGs), charge-to-spin conversion via the Edelstein effect is conventionally limited to the transverse plane. Accessing longitudinal or ou…

Giant perpendicular Edelstein polarization in 2D compensated magnets via bichromatic Floquet driving

Mohsen Yarmohammadi, Daegeun Jo, Marco Berritta +3

While unconventional -wave magnets can generate nonrelativistic Edelstein polarizations, spin-group symmetries strictly forbid these responses in unconventional magnets with hig…

Efficient two-color Floquet control of the RKKY interaction in altermagnets

Mohsen Yarmohammadi, Pei-Hao Fu, James K. Freericks

Magnetic impurities in real materials can mask the intrinsic spin-dependent properties of hosts. They interact indirectly through the Ruderman-Kittel-Kasuya-Yosida (RKKY) mechanism…
