Terahertz (THz) signals, mainly generated by photonic or electronic approaches, are being sought for various applications, whereas the development of magnetic source might be a necessary step to harness the magnetic nature of…

We investigate the ultrafast spin dynamics in an epitaxial hcp(1100) cobalt thin film. By performing pump-probe magneto-optical measurements with the magnetization along either the easy or hard magnetic axis, we determine the…

While the understanding of altermagnetism is still at a very early stage, it is expected to play a role in various fields of condensed matter research, for example spintronics, caloritronics and superconductivity. In the field of optical…

We present a comprehensive study of the polarization and spatial coherence properties of the lasing modes supported by a 4-fold symmetric plasmonic lattice. By modifying only, the scattering properties of the individual particles while…

Terahertz (THz) spin-to-charge conversion has become an increasingly important process for THz pulse generation and as a tool to probe ultrafast spin interactions at magnetic interfaces. However, its relation to traditional, steady state,…

Experimental observations of the ultrafast (less than 50 fs) demagnetization of Ni have so far defied theoretical explanations particularly since its spin-flipping time is much less than that resulting from spin-orbit and electron-lattice…

Controlled generation of coherent spin waves with highest possible frequencies and the shortest possible wavelengths is a cornerstone of spintronics and magnonics. Here, using the Heisenberg antiferromagnet RbMF$_3$, we demonstrate that…

We present a theory for the coherent magnetization dynamics induced by a focused ultrafast laser beam in magnetic films, taking into account nonthermal (inverse Faraday effect) and thermal (heating) actuation. The dynamic conversion between…

A systematic microscopic theory of magnetically induced ferroelectricity and lattice modulation is presented for all electron configurations of Mott-insulating transition-metal oxides. Various mechanisms of polarization are identified in…

Laser-induced femtosecond demagnetization has attracted a broad attention as a possible candidate for information storage technology. However, whether or not lattice vibration directly participates in demagnetization has been highly…

We investigate electron spin currents induced optically via plasmonic modes in the Kretschmann configuration. By utilising the scattering matrix formalism, we take the plasmonic mode coupled to external laser drive into consideration and…

Nanoscale superlattices with uniaxial ferromagnetic layers antiferromagnetically coupled through non-magnetic spacers are recently used as components of magnetoresistive and recording devices. In the last years intensive experimental…

Dimerization of a spin-half Heisenberg antiferromagnet on a square lattice is investigated for several possible dimerized configurations, some of which are shown to have lower ground state energies than the others. In particular, the…

Research on quantum magnetism with ultra-cold gases in optical lattices is expected to open fascinating perspectives for the understanding of fundamental problems in condensed-matter physics. Here we report on the first realization of…

We probe the spin dynamics in a thin magnetic film at ferromagnetic resonance by nuclear resonant scattering of synchrotron radiation at the 14.4 keV resonance of $^{57}$Fe. The precession of the magnetization leads to an apparent reduction…

We show both theoretically and experimentally that the magnetization density accompanying ultrafast excitation of a semiconductor with circular polarized light varies rapidly enough to produce a detectable THz field.

The electronic band structure-controlled ultrafast demagnetization mechanism in Co2FexMn1-xSi Heusler alloy is underpinned by systematic variation of composition. We find the spin-flip scattering rate controlled by spin density of states at…

Two-component dipolar fermions in zigzag optical lattices allow for the engineering of spin-orbital models. We show that dipolar lattice fermions permit the exploration of a regime typically unavailable in solid-state compounds that is…

We report a computational theoretical investigation of electron spin-flip scattering induced by the electron-phonon interaction in the transition-metal ferromagnets bcc Fe, fcc Co and fcc Ni. The Elliott-Yafet electron-phonon spin-flip…

Laser radiation incident on a ferromagnetic sample produces excited electrons and currents whose spin polarization must not be aligned with the magnetization -- an effect due to spin-orbit coupling that is ubiquitous in spin- and…
