Probing ultrafast magnetization dynamics via synthetic axion fields

Kavli Affiliate: Frank Wilczek | First 5 Authors: Leon Shaposhnikov, Eduardo Barredo-Alamilla, Frank Wilczek, Maxim A. Gorlach, | Summary: Spatial structuring of materials at subwavelength scales underlies the concept of metamaterials possessing exotic properties beyond those of the constituent media. Temporal modulation of material parameters enables further functionalities. Here, we show that high-frequency oscillations of […]
