We report magnetization changes generated by an electric field in ferromagnetic Ga$_{1-x}$Mn$_x$N grown by molecular beam epitaxy. Two classes of phenomena have been revealed. First, over a wide range of magnetic fields, the magnetoelectric…
We extend our previous study of the polarization dependence of the nonlinear optical response to the case of magnetic surfaces and buried magnetic interfaces. We calculate for the longitudinal and polar configuration the nonlinear…
The precession and damping of a collinear magnetization displaced from its equilibrium are described by the Landau-Lifshitz-Gilbert equation. For a noncollinear magnetization, it is not known how the damping should be described. We use…
Magneto-optical phenomena such as the Faraday and Kerr effects play a decisive role for establishing control over polarization and intensity of optical fields propagating through a medium. Intensity effects where the direction of light…
Polarization of the cosmic microwave background (CMB) brings out information not only on the early universe but also on the late-time large-scale structure via weak gravitational lensing. Here, we show that circular polarization is induced…
Through time-resolved two-color magneto-optical Kerr spectroscopy we have demonstrated that photogenerated transient carriers decrease the coercivity of ferromagnetic InMnAs at low temperatures. This transient ``softening'' persists only…
CrSBr is an air-stable magnetic van der Waals semiconductor with strong magnetic anisotropy, where the interaction of excitons with the magnetic order enables the optical identification of different magnetic phases. Here, we study the…
We present the manipulation of magnetic and electrical properties of (Ga,Mn)As by the adsorption of dye-molecules as a first step towards the realization of light-controlled magnetic-semiconductor/dye hybrid devices. A significant lowering…
Using a microfabricated, p-type GaAs Hall bar, is it shown that the combined application of co-planar electric and magnetic fields enables the observation at 50 K of spatial oscillations of the photoluminescence circular polarization due to…
We present an exact analytical investigation of spin precession for a test gyroscope in the magnetized Kerr spacetime--an exact electrovacuum solution to the Einstein-Maxwell equations. Our approach accommodates arbitrary magnetic field…
Heat and disorder are opponents of magnetism. This fact, expressed in Curie's law established more than a century ago, holds even in the highly non-equilibrium interaction of ultra-intense laser pulses with magnetic matter. In contradiction…
We report on the manipulation of magnetization by femtosecond laser pulses in a periodic array of cylindrical nickel nanoparticles. By performing experiments at different wavelength, we show that the excitation of collective surface plasmon…
A number of factors that influence spectral position of the femtosecond pulse in a Kerr-lens modelocked Cr:LiSGaF laser have been identified: high-order dispersion, gain saturation, reabsorption from the ground state, and stimulated Raman…
An examination of the propagation of intense 200 fs pulses in water reveals light filaments not sustained by the balance between Kerr-induced self-focusing and plasma-induced defocusing. Their appearance is interpreted as the consequence of…
Experimental studies of spin transport in a two-dimensional electron gas hosted by a triple GaAs/AlGaAs quantum well are reported. Using time-resolved Kerr rotation, we observed the precession of the spin polarization about a…
We study the gravitational lensing in the weak field approximation assuming the presence of a plasma and of a magnetic field around a compact gravitational source. The external magnetic field causes the split of the image, as the…
The magnetic compensation phenomenon has been explored in the Pr(1-x)Gd(x)Al(2) series. The contributions from Pr and Gd moments compensate each other at a specific temperature in the ordered state (below (T(c)). At high fields, the…
The exciton recombination and spin dynamics are investigated both experimentally and theoretically in an ensemble of indirect band gap (In,Al)As/AlAs quantum dots (QDs) with type-I band alignment. The magnetic-field-induced circular…
The magneto-optic Kerr effect (MOKE), which describes the rotation and ellipticity of linearly polarized light upon reflection, is conventionally associated with time-reversal symmetry breaking. Here, we theoretically demonstrate that a…
The light-induced femtosecond dynamics of the sublattice magnetizations in the antiferromagnetically ordered phase of the semiconductor $\alpha$-MnTe is investigated theoretically as function of an external driving field. The…
