Direct optical probe of magnon topology in two-dimensional quantum magnets

Emil Viñas Boström, Tahereh Sadat Parvini, James W. McIver +3

Controlling edge states of topological magnon insulators is a promising route to stable spintronics devices. However, to experimentally ascertain the topology of magnon bands is a…

Nonthermal pathways to ultrafast control in quantum materials

A. de la Torre, D. M. Kennes, M. Claassen +3

We review recent progress in utilizing ultrafast light-matter interaction to control the macroscopic properties of quantum materials. Particular emphasis is placed on photoinduced…

Light-induced topological magnons in two-dimensional van der Waals magnets

Emil Viñas Boström, Martin Claassen, James W. McIver +3

Driving a two-dimensional Mott insulator with circularly polarized light breaks time-reversal and inversion symmetry, which induces an optically-tunable synthetic scalar spin chira…

Topological Floquet Engineering of Twisted Bilayer Graphene

Gabriel E. Topp, Gregor Jotzu, James W. McIver +3

We investigate the topological properties of Floquet-engineered twisted bilayer graphene above the magic angle driven by circularly polarized laser pulses. Employing a full Moiré-u…

Microscopic theory for the light-induced anomalous Hall effect in graphene

S. A. Sato, J. W. McIver, M. Nuske +9

We employ a quantum Liouville equation with relaxation to model the recently observed anomalous Hall effect in graphene irradiated by an ultrafast pulse of circularly polarized lig…
