Nonlinear photocurrent in time-reversal invariant noncentrosymmetric systems have attracted substantial interest. Here we propose two new types of second-order nonlinear direct photocurrent as the counterpart of normal shift photocurrent…

Magnetic materials show rich optical responses related to the magnetic order. These phenomena reflect the nature of their excitations, providing a powerful probe for the magnetic states and a way to control them. In recent years, such…

NiI2 is an exotic van der Waals material in which a noncollinear spin spiral breaks spatial inversion symmetry without sizeable structural distortion, generating improper ferroelectric polarization, and stabilizing p-wave magnetic states…

We formulate the spin contribution to the inverse Faraday effect of non-magnetic metals. We deal with the role of the inversion symmetry, which forces all electronic bands to be at least twice degenerate at every point in the Brillouin…

Antiferromagnets (AFMs) are strong candidates for the future spintronic and memory applications largely because of their inherently fast dynamics and lack of stray fields, with Mn2Au being one of the most promising. For the numerical…

In experiment and theory, we resolve the mechanism of ultrafast optical magnon excitation in antiferromagnetic NiO. We employ time-resolved optical two-color pump-probe measurements to study the coherent non-thermal spin dynamics. Optical…

MnAu$_{2}$ is a spin-spiral material with in-plane ferromagnetic Mn layers that form a screw-type pattern around a tetragonal $c$ axis. The spiral angle $\theta$ was shown using neutron diffraction experiments to decrease with pressure, and…

Nonlinear optical responses to external electromagnetic field, characterized by second and higher order susceptibilities, play crucial roles in nonlinear optical devices and novel optoelectronics. Herein we present a quantum nonlinear…

We study the magnon spin photocurrent in effective spin models for Cr2O3, a material known for its magnetoelectric effect. Using nonlinear response theory, we show that magnon spin current can be generated by both linearly and circularly…

Nowadays, dielectric nanophotonics enables almost lossless resonant interaction between light and matter at the nanoscale. We show both theoretically and by electromagnetic simulations, that the peculiar nature of Mie-resonance induced…

Spin currents offer a way to control static and dynamic magnetic properties, and therefore they are crucial for next-generation MRAM devices or spin-torque oscillators. Manipulating the dynamics is especially interesting within the context…

The spin-Hall effect describes the interconversion of charge currents and spin currents, enabling highly efficient manipulation of magnetization for spintronics. Symmetry conditions generally restrict polarizations of these spin currents to…

We predict that a lateral electrical current in antiferromagnets can induce non-equilibrium N\'eel order fields, i.e. fields whose sign alternates between the spin sublattices, which can trigger ultra-fast spin-axis reorientation. Based on…

Metallic antiferromagnets with noncollinear orientation of magnetic moments provide a playground for investigating spin-dependent transport properties by analysis of the anomalous Hall effect. The intermetallic compound Mn5Si3 is an…

Noncollinear magnets with near-zero net magnetization and nontrivial bulk electronic topology hold significant promise for spintronic applications, though their scarcity necessitates purposeful design strategies. In this work, we report a…

Spin photogalvanic effect (SPGE) is an efficient method to generate a spin current by photoexcitation in a contactless and ultra-fast way. In two-dimensional (2D) collinear antiferromagnetic (AFM) materials that preserve the combined…

Antiferromagnetic materials have great potential for spintronic applications at terahertz (THz) frequencies. However, in contrast to ferromagnets, experimental studies of antiferromagnets are often challenging due to a lack of…
