Spin-momentum locked interaction between guided photons and surface electrons in topological insulators
Siyuan Luo, Li He, Mo Li
The propagation of electrons and photons can respectively have the spin-momentum locking effect which correlates the spin with the linear momentum. For the surface electrons in thr…

The role of electron and phonon temperatures in the helicity-independent all-optical switching of GdFeCo
Jon Gorchon, Richard B. Wilson, Yang Yang +6
Ultrafast optical heating of the electrons in ferrimagnetic metals can result in all-optical switching (AOS) of the magnetization. Here we report quantitative measurements of the t…
