We demonstrate that light resonant with the bandgap forces the antiferromagnetic semiconducor EuSe to enter ferromagnetic alignment in the picosecond time scale. A photon generates an electron-hole pair, whose electron forms a supergiant…
In intrinsic magnetic semiconductors, the absorption of a single photon can generate a spin polaron, whose magnetic moment reaches many thousands of Bohr magnetons [1.2]. Here we investigate photoinduced spin polarons, using Monte Carlo…
Carrying a large, pure spin magnetic moment of 7 $\mu$bohr/atom in the half-filled 4f shell, divalent europium is an outstanding element for assembling novel magnetic devices in which a two-dimensional electron gas (2DEG) is polarized due…
Colossal magnetoresistance (CMR) emerges from intertwined spin and charge degrees of freedom in the form of ferromagnetic clusters also known as trapped magnetic polarons. As a result, CMR is rarely observed in antiferromagnetic materials.…
The combination of ferromagnets with topological superconductors or insulators allows for new phases of matter that support excitations such as chiral edge modes and Majorana fermions. EuS, a wide-band-gap ferromagnetic insulator with a…
Materials exhibiting electronic inhomogeneities at the nanometer scale have enormous potential for applications. Magnetic polarons are one such type of inhomogeneity which link the electronic, magnetic and lattice degrees of freedom in…
We present a femtosecond optical pump-probe study of the multiferroic manganite Eu$_{0.75}$Y$_{0.25}$MnO$_3$. The optical response of the material at pump energies of 1.55 and 3.1 eV is dominated by the $d$-$d$ and $p$-$d$ transitions of…
Spectroscopy of the centrosymmetric magnetic semiconductors EuTe and EuSe reveals spin-induced optical second harmonic generation (SHG) in the band gap vicinity at 2.1-2.4eV. The magnetic field and temperature dependence demonstrates that…
Spin-polarons are obtained using an Ising-like exchange model consisting of double and super-exchange interactions in low dimensional systems. At zero temperature, a new phase separation between small magnetic polarons, one conduction…
We have observed the spatial inhomogeneity of the electronic structure of a single-crystalline electron-doped EuO thin film with ferromagnetic ordering by employing infrared magneto-optical imaging with synchrotron radiation. The uniform…
Temperature-dependent angle-resolved photoemission spectroscopy (ARPES) was carried out on single-crystalline EuB6 samples. By measuring ARPES spectra in an extended Brillouin zone, a B 2p hole pocket centered at the X point is clearly…
High quality thin films of the ferromagnetic semiconductor EuO have been prepared and were studied using a new form of spin-resolved spectroscopy. We observed large changes in the electronic structure across the Curie and metal-insulator…
We study the enhancement of the magnetic transition temperature $T_c$ due to incident light in ferromagnetic semiconductors such as EuS. The photoexcited carriers mediate an extra ferromagnetic interaction due to the coupling with the…
The magnetic spin dynamics and optical properties of EuZn$_2$P$_2$ are studied. Single crystals grown by the Sn-flux method crystallize in the $P\overline{3}m1$ (No.~164) space group and order antiferromagnetically at $T_N=23.5$~K.…
Electromagnons are known from multiferroics as spin waves excited by the electric component of electromagnetic radiation. We report the discovery of an excitation in the far-infrared spectra of eps-Fe2O3 which we attribute to an…
We present the temperature and layer dependent electronic structure of a 20-layer EuS(100)-film using a combination of first-principles and model calculation, the latter based on the ferromagnetic Kondo-lattice. The calculated…
Magnetic, thermal and transport properties of the non-centrosymmetric compound Eu$_2$Pd$_2$Sn are revisited after including new measurements. In its paramagnetic phase, the outstanding feature of this compound is the formation of Eu$^{2+}$…
We present a simple semiclassical model to sustain that in europium chalcogenides (EuX), Faraday rotation (FR) in the transparency gap is proportional to the magnetization of the sample, irrespective of the material's magnetic phase,…
Ultra-intense laser pulses can create sufficiently strong fields to probe quantum electrodynamics effects in a novel regime. By colliding a 60 GeV electron bunch with a laser pulse focussed to the maximum achievable intensity of $10^{23}$…
EuB6 is a low carrier density ferromagnet which exhibits large magnetoresistance, positive or negative depending on temperature. The formation of magnetic polarons just above the magnetic critical temperature has been suggested by spin-flip…
