Characterizing the optical response of magneto-optic and magnetic materials usually relies on semi-classical models (e.g. Lorentz oscillator model) involving few parameters or models based on a detailed quantum mechanical description of the…
We investigate the optical activity of tilted nodal loop semimetals. We calculate the full conductivity matrix for a band structure containing a nodal loop with possible tilt in the $x-y$ plane, which allows us to study the Kerr rotation…

Measurements of the polar Kerr effect using a zero-area-loop Sagnac magnetometer on Pb/Ni and Al/(Co-Pd) proximity-effect bilayers show unambiguous evidence for the "inverse proximity effect," in which the ferromagnet (F) induces a finite…
Using density functional theory calculations, we have found an enhanced magneto-optical Kerr effect in Fe/insulator interfaces. The results of our study indicate that interfacial Fe atoms in the Fe films have a low-dimensional nature, which…
In conventional Kerr- and Faraday microscopy the sample is illuminated with plane-polarised light and a magnetic domain contrast is generated by an analyser making use of the Kerr- or Faraday rotation. In this paper we demonstrate…
Magnetooptical Kerr effect in meta surface based structure
Magneto-optical permittivity tensor spectra of undoped InSb, n-doped and p-doped InSb crystals were determined using the terahertz time-domain spectroscopy (THz-TDS) and the Fourier transform far-infrared spectroscopy (far-FTIR). A Huge…
The magneto-optic Kerr effect is a powerful tool for measuring magnetism in thin films at microscopic scales, as was recently demonstrated by the major role it played in the discovery of two-dimensional (2D) ferromagnetism in monolayer…
We investigate the optical response induced by a d.c. current flowing in a nonmagnetic material that lacks inversion symmetry. In this class of materials, the flowing current experiences a nonlinear Hall effect and induces a nonequilibrium…

We consider combining of multiple laser beams into a single near diffraction-limited beam by beam self-focusing (collapse) in a Kerr medium. The beams with the total power above critical are combined in the near field and then propagated in…
Scattering resonances play a crucial role in understanding wave behavior in various physical systems. While significant progress has been made in analyzing resonances in high-contrast and nonlinear media, a general characterization of…
We propose a first-principles scheme for the description of the magneto-optical kerr effect within density functional theory (DFT). Though the computation of Kerr parameters is often done within DFT, starting from the conductivity or the…
