Laser-Induced Transient Magnons in Sr3Ir2O7 Throughout the Brillouin Zone

D. G. Mazzone, D. Meyers, Y. Cao +32

Although ultrafast manipulation of magnetism holds great promise for new physical phenomena and applications, targeting specific states is held back by our limited understanding of…

Probing the Interatomic Potential of Solids by Strong-Field Nonlinear Phononics

Alexander von Hoegen, Roman Mankowsky, Michael Fechner +2

Femtosecond optical pulses at mid-infrared frequencies have opened up the nonlinear control of lattice vibrations in solids. So far, all applications have relied on second order ph…

A dynamical stability limit for the charge density wave in K0.3MoO3

Roman Mankowsky, Biaolong Liu, Srivats Rajasekaran +6

We study the response of the one-dimensional charge density wave in K0.3MoO3 to different types of excitation with femtosecond optical pulses. We compare the response to direct exc…

Ultrafast reversal of the ferroelectric polarization

Roman Mankowsky, Alexander von Hoegen, Michael Först +1

The ability to manipulate ferroelectrics at ultrafast speeds has long been an elusive target for materials research. Coherently exciting the ferroelectric mode with ultrashort opti…
