Phonon-induced magnetization dynamics in Co-doped iron garnets

A. Frej, C. S. Davies, A. Kirilyuk +1

The developing field of strain-induced magnetization dynamics offers a promising path toward efficiently controlling spins and phase transitions. Understanding the underlying mecha…

Phononic Switching of Magnetization by the Ultrafast Barnett Effect

C. S. Davies, F. G. N. Fennema, A. Tsukamoto +3

The Barnett effect, discovered more than a century ago, describes how an inertial body with otherwise zero net magnetic moment acquires spontaneous magnetization when mechanically…

Strongly nonlinear antiferromagnetic dynamics in high magnetic fields

Pavel Stremoukhov, Ansar Safin, Casper F. Schippers +7

Antiferromagnetic (AFM) materials possess a well-recognized potential for ultrafast data processing thanks to their intrinsic ultrafast spin dynamics, absence of stray fields, and…

Helicity-independent all-optical switching of magnetization in ferrimagnetic alloys

C. S. Davies, J. H. Mentink, A. V. Kimel +2

We review and discuss the process of single-shot helicity-independent all-optical switching of magnetization by which a single suitably-ultrafast excitation, under the right condit…

Cavity-Dumping a Single Infrared Pulse from a Free-Electron Laser for Two-Color Pump-Probe Experiments

T. Janssen, C. S. Davies, M. Gidding +3

Electromagnetic radiation in the mid- to far-infrared spectral range represents an indispensable tool for the study of numerous types of collective excitations in solids and molecu…
