The reflection of an optical wave from a metal, arising from strong interactions between the optical electric field and the free carriers of the metal, is accompanied by a phase reversal of the reflected electric field. A far less common…
We theoretically propose that the optical analog of a Lorentz force acting on a ray of light is realized in multiferroic materials such as GaFeO$_3$ showing the magnetoelectric effect. The toroidal moment plays the role of a ``vector…
A Chern-Simons theory in 3D is accomplished by the so-called $\theta$-term in the action, $(\theta/2)\int F\wedge F$, which contributes only to observable effects on the boundaries of such a system. When electromagnetic radiation interacts…
Magneto-optic photonic systems can violate Kirchhoff's law of thermal emission by breaking Lorentz reciprocity. We develop a dispersive perturbation theory yielding an analytical expression for magneto-optical resonance frequency shifts in…
The paper investigates the influence of the magnetic field on the behavior of 180-degree domain boundaries in a uniaxial ferromagnetic film with inhomogeneous magnetoelectric interaction. It is shown that, depending on the magnitude and…
Composite multiferroics, heterostructures of ferromagnetic (FM) and ferroelectric (FE) materials, are characterized by a remarkable magnetoelectric effect at the interface. Previous work has supported the ferromagnetic structure with…
We analyze theoretically magnetoresistance of high mobility two-dimensional electron systems being illuminated by multiple radiation sources. In particular, we study the influence on the striking effect of microwave-induced resistance…
The study of nanostructured artificial media for optics has expanded rapidly over the last few decades, coupled with improvements of fabrication technology that have enabled investigation of previously unrealisable optical scattering…
Magnetoelectric phenomena are intimately linked to relativistic effects and also require the material to break spatial inversion symmetry and time reversal invariance. Magnetoelectric coupling can substantially affect light-matter…
Magnetoelectric coupling in multiferroic materials opens new routes to control the propagation of light. The new effects arise due to dynamic magnetoelectric susceptibility that cross-couples the electric and magnetic fields of light and…
We study the optical absorption spectra in a polar ferrimagnet GaFeO_3. We consider the E1, E2 and M1 processes on Fe atoms. It is shown that the magnetoelectric effect on the absorption spectra arises from the E1-M1 interference process…
We provide a detailed study of the reflectivity of multiferroic TbMnO_3 for wave numbers from 40 cm^{-1} to 1000 cm^{-1} and temperatures 5 K < T < 300 K. Excitations are studied for polarization directions E || a, the polarization where…
We present a theoretical investigation of the lateral shift of an infrared light beam reflected from a magnetic film deposited on a non-magnetic dielectric substrate, taking into account the linear magneto-electric interaction in the…
We have measured the optical reflectivity $R(\omega)$ of $Eu_{0.6}Ca_{0.4}B_{6}$ as a function of temperature between 1.5 and 300 $K$ and in external magnetic fields up to 7 $T$. The slope at the onset of the plasma edge feature in…
The magneto-optical effect breaks time-reversal symmetry, a unique property that makes it indispensable in nonreciprocal optics and topological photonics. Unfortunately, all natural materials have a rather weak magneto-optical response in…
We have studied magneto-optical effects in an optical whispering-gallery-mode resonator (WGMR) manufactured from a Faraday-rotator material with, to the best of our knowledge, the record quality factor ($Q = 1.45\times10^8$) achieved for…
An unexplored physical mechanism which produces a magnetoelectric effect in ferroelectric/ferromagnetic multilayers is studied based on first-principles calculations. Its origin is a change in bonding at the ferroelectric/ferromagnet…
The magneto-optical Faraday effect in the magnetoplasmonic nanostructures with nonuniform, periodically modulated spatial distribution of the magnetization is considered. It is shown that in such nanostructures the Faraday effect can…
A new type of metal-dielectric composites has been proposed that is characterised by a resonance-like behaviour of the effective permeability in the infrared and visible spectral ranges. This material can be referred to as optomagnetic…
The conductance of a quantum wire containing a single magnetic barrier is studied numerically by means of the recursive Greens function technique. For sufficiently strong and localized barriers, Fano - type reflection resonances are…
