Sublattice-resolved coherent phonon dynamics in charge density waves
Kyoung Hun Oh, Honglie Ning, Zongqi Shen +15
Phonons govern fundamental material properties and play a central role in various electronic phase transitions. Coherent driving of specific phonon modes enables on-demand phase co…
Dynamics of a jointly commensurate moiré charge density wave
Kyoung Hun Oh, Yifan Su, Honglie Ning +23
The advent of two-dimensional moiré systems has revolutionized the exploration of phenomena arising from strong correlations and nontrivial band topology. Recently, a moiré super…
Ultrafast giant enhancement of second harmonic generation in a strongly correlated cobaltite
Yuchen Cui, Qiaomei Liu, Qiong Wu +15
In quantum materials, nonlinear optical responses are highly sensitive to electronic structure and many-body interactions. Probing and manipulating such nonlinear processes is a co…
Coherent seeding and control of dynamical ferroelectricity by phonon anharmonicity
Junhan Huang, Yongkang Ju, Xinbo Wang +12
Optical control of quantum materials has progressed along two separate directions: creating non-equilibrium states inaccessible at equilibrium, and coherently controlling ultrafast…
Room-temperature multistage metastability in a moiré superstructure
B. Q. Lv, Yifan Su, Alfred Zong +16
Metastability is fundamental not only to phase ordering and transitions, but also to a broad range of modern technologies, from memory devices to metallic glasses. In condensed-mat…
Efficient high-harmonic generation in van der Waals ferroelectric NbOI crystals
Tianchen Hu, Feng Li, Junhan Huang +8
Layered NbOX (), a member of the van der Waals ferroelectric family, exhibits intrinsic ferroelectricity and pronounced nonlinear optical responses, mak…
