Three-phonon mixing as a source of light-induced chirality

Y . Zhu, A. Vanderhaegen, Z. Zeng +7

Mid- and far-infrared optical pulses have found wide applicability in experiments in which collective modes of solids are driven nonlinearly, as a means to manipulate functional pr…

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…

The optical phonoelectric effect

D. Choi, M. Först, M. Fechner +9

Piezoelectricity is a technologically important property of certain insulators in which mechanical strain induces an electrical polarization. However, the rate at which a piezoelec…

Ultrafast non-volatile rewritable ferroaxial switching

Z. Zeng, M. Först, M. Fechner +3

Ultrafast switching of ferroic phases is an important research frontier, with significant technological potential. Yet, current efforts are meeting some key challenges, ranging fro…

Photo-generated charge-transfer excitons in NiO revealed by ultrafast time-resolved resonant inelastic x-ray scattering

Giacomo Merzoni, Leonardo Martinelli, Sergii Parchenko +32

Strong electronic correlation can lead to insulating behavior and to the opening of large optical gaps, even in materials with partly filled valence shells. Although the non-equili…

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…
