All optical ultrafast pure spin current in the altermagnet CrSO
Deepika Gill, Ruikai Wu, Peter Elliott +2
All-optical generation of pure spin current -- the flow of spin in the absence of a corresponding charge flow -- relies on a symmetry based compensation of valley charge. The 2d $d…
Coupled femto-excitons, free carriers and light
Deepika Gill, Sam Shallcross, Wenhan Chen +2
Non-equilibrium quantum matter generated by ultrafast laser light opens new pathways in fundamental condensed matter physics, as well as offering rich control possibilities in "tai…
Giant moment increase by ultrafast laser light
Sangeeta Sharma, Deepika Gill, Jyoti Krishna +3
It is now well established that a few femtosecond laser pulse will induce an ultrafast loss of moment in a magnetic material. Here we show that the opposite effect can also occur:…
Kohn-Sham-Proca equations for ultrafast exciton dynamics
J. K. Dewhurst, D. Gill, S. Shallcross +1
A long standing problem in time dependent density functional theory (TD-DFT) has been the absence of a functional able to capture excitonic physics under laser pump conditions. Her…
