Nonresonant optomechanical control of structural phases
Jiaojian Shi, Yijing Huang, Christian Heide +24
Optical tweezers demonstrate how light can exert forces to trap, repel, and manipulate microscopic particles without absorption. Recent theory has suggested that such forces can ex…
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…
Observation of polarization density waves in SrTiO3
Gal Orenstein, Viktor Krapivin, Yijing Huang +23
The nature of the "failed" ferroelectric transition in SrTiO3 has been a long-standing puzzle in condensed matter physics. A compelling explanation is the competition between ferro…
Ultrafast lattice disordering can be accelerated by electronic collisional forces
Gilberto A. de la Pena Munoz, Alfredo A. Correa, Shan Yang +11
In the prevalent picture of ultrafast structural phase transitions, the atomic motion occurs in a slowly varying potential energy surface determined adiabatically by the fast elect…
Hard X-ray Generation and Detection of Nanometer-Scale Localized Coherent Acoustic Wave Packets in SrTiO and KTaO
Yijing Huang, Peihao Sun, Samuel W. Teitelbaum +21
We demonstrate that the absorption of femtosecond x-ray pulses can excite quasi-spherical high-wavevector coherent acoustic phonon wavepackets using an all x-ray pump and probe sca…
