Multiple supersonic phase fronts launched at a complex-oxide hetero-interface

M. Först, K. R. Beyerlein, R. Mankowsky +16

Selective optical excitation of a substrate lattice can drive phase changes across hetero-interfaces. This phenomenon is a non-equilibrium analogue of static strain control in hete…

Optical melting of the transverse Josephson plasmon: a comparison between bilayer and trilayer cuprates

W. Hu, D. Nicoletti, A. V. Boris +2

We report on an investigation of the redistribution of interlayer coherence in the trilayer cuprate Bi2Sr2Ca2Cu3O10. The experiment is performed under the same apical-oxygen phonon…

Optically enhanced coherent transport in YBa2Cu3O6.5 by ultrafast redistribution of interlayer coupling

W. Hu, S. Kaiser, D. Nicoletti +7

Nonlinear optical excitation of infrared active lattice vibrations has been shown to melt magnetic or orbital orders and to transform insulators into metals. In cuprates, this tech…

Optically induced coherent transport far above Tc in underdoped YBa2Cu3O6+x

S. Kaiser, C. R. Hunt, D. Nicoletti +8

We report on a photo-induced transient state of YBa2Cu2O6+x in which transport perpendicular to the Cu-O planes becomes highly coherent. This effect is achieved by excitation with…

Ultrafast strain engineering in complex oxide heterostructures

A. D. Caviglia, R. Scherwitzl, P. Popovich +11

We report on ultrafast optical experiments in which femtosecond mid-infrared radiation is used to excite the lattice of complex oxide heterostructures. By tuning the excitation ene…
