We study the coupling between conventional (Maxwell) and emergent electrodynamics in quantum spin ice, a 3+1-dimensional $U(1)$ quantum spin liquid. We find that a uniform electric field can be used to tune the properties of both the ground…
The recently-discovered monolayer transition metal dichalcogenides (TMDCs) provide a fertile playground to explore new coupled spin-valley physics. Although robust spin and valley degrees of freedom are inferred from polarized…
We propose and analyze a new method for manipulation of a heavy hole spin in a quantum dot. Due to spin-orbit coupling between states with different orbital momenta and opposite spin orientations, an applied rf electric field induces…
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…
The spin-orbit coupling (SOC) affecting the center of mass of ultracold atoms can be simulated using a properly chosen periodic sequence of magnetic pulses. Yet such a method is generally accompanied by micro-motion which hinders a precise…
The spin dynamics in Ni is studied by an exact diagonalization method on the ultrafast time scale. It is shown that the femtosecond relaxation of the magneto-optical response results from exchange interaction and spin-orbit coupling. Each…
We propose fast phase-gates of single nuclear spins interacting with single electron spins. The gate operation utilizes geometric phase shifts of the electron spin induced by fast/slow rotating fields; the path difference depending on…
We investigate theoretically charge migration following prompt double ionization of a polyatomic molecule (C$_2$H$_4$BrI) and find that for double ionization, correlation-driven charge migration appears to be particularly prominent, i.e.,…
We develop a theory for the spin-echo dynamics of a heavy hole in a quantum dot, accounting for both hyperfine- and electric-field-induced fluctuations. We show that a moderate applied magnetic field can drive this system to a…
Valence transitions in strongly correlated electron systems are caused by orbital hybridization and Coulomb interactions between localized and delocalized electrons. The transition can be triggered by changes in the electronic structure and…
Complex oxides with $4d$ and $5d$ transition-metal ions recently emerged as a new paradigm in correlated electron physics, due to the interplay between spin-orbit coupling and electron interactions. For $4d$ and $5d$ ions, the spin-orbit…
We present a new model for the study of spin-orbit coupling in interacting quasi-one-dimensional systems and solve it exactly to find the spectral properties of such systems. We show that the combination of spin-orbit coupling and…
In this article, we study control of electron-nuclear spin dynamics at magnetic field strengths where the Larmor frequency of the nucleus is comparable to the hyperfine coupling strength. The quantization axis for the nuclear spin differs…
We demonstrate how the combination of oscillating magnetic forces and radio-frequency (RF) pulses endows RF photons with tunable momentum. We observe velocity-selective spinflip transitions and the associated Doppler shift. This realizes…
We employ a quantum master equations approach based on a vectorial Maxwell-pseudospin model to compute the quantum evolution of the spin populations and coherences in the fundamental singlet trion transition of a negatively charged quantum…
Electron transport in a finite one dimensional quantum spin chain (with ferromagnetic exchange) is studied within an $s-d$ exchange Hamiltonian. Spin transfer coefficients strongly depend on the sign of the $s-d$ exchange constant. For a…
The control of the ultracold collisions between neutral atoms is an extensive and successful field of study. The tools developed allow for ultracold chemical reactions to be managed using magnetic fields, light fields and spin-state…
Strong magnetic field pulses associated with a relativistic electron bunch can imprint switching patterns in magnetic thin films that have uniaxial in-plane anisotropy. In experiments with Fe and FeCo alloy films the pattern shape reveals…
The quantum phenomenon of spectral flow which has been observed in laboratory superfluids, such as 3He-B, controls the drift velocity of proton type II superconductor vortices in the liquid core of a neutron star and so determines the rate…
We study the nonlinear classical dynamics of an electron confined in a double dot potential and subjected to a spin-orbit coupling and a constant external magnetic field. It is shown that due to the spin orbit coupling, the energy can be…
