Theory of out-of-equilibrium electron and phonon dynamics in metals after ultrafast laser excitation
Ulrike Ritzmann, Peter M. Oppeneer, Pablo Maldonado
The out-of-equilibrium dynamics of electrons and phonons upon laser excitation are often described by the two-temperature model, which assumes that both subsystems are separately i…
High-frequency magnon excitation due to femtosecond spin-transfer torques
Ulrike Ritzmann, Pavel Baláž, Pablo Maldonado +2
Femtosecond laser pulses can induce ultrafast demagnetization as well as generate bursts of hot electron spin currents. In trilayer spin valves consisting of two metallic ferromagn…
Domain wall dynamics due to femtosecond laser-induced superdiffusive spin transport
Pavel Baláž, Karel Carva, Ulrike Ritzmann +2
Manipulation of magnetic domain walls via a helicity-independent laser pulse has recently been experimentally demonstrated and various physical mechanisms leading to domain wall dy…
Coherent modulation of the electron temperature and electron-phonon couplings in a 2D material
Yingchao Zhang, Xun Shi, Wenjing You +9
Ultrashort light pulses can selectively excite charges, spins and phonons in materials, providing a powerful approach for manipulating their properties. Here we use femtosecond las…
Tracking the Ultrafast Non-Equilibrium Energy Flow between Electronic and Lattice Degrees of Freedom in Crystalline Nickel
P. Maldonado, T. Chase, A. H. Reid +9
Femtosecond laser excitation of solid-state systems creates non-equilibrium hot electrons that cool down by transferring their energy to other degrees of freedom and ultimately to…
