Super amplification of lunar response to gravitational waves driven by thick crust

Kavli Affiliate: Xian Chen| Summary: The Moon has been long regarded as a natural resonator of gravitational waves (GWs) since 1960, showing great potential to fill the frequency gap left behind GW detections by ground- or space-based laser interferometry. However, the spatial variation of this amplification capacity on the Moon remains unclear. Here, we numerically […]

All-optical magnetization reversal via x-ray magnetic circular dichroism

Kavli Affiliate: Shigetaka Moriyama | First 5 Authors: Kihiro T. Yamada, Kihiro T. Yamada, , , | Summary: Light polarization is one of the most fundamental features, equivalent to energy and coherence. Magnetism changes light polarization, and vice versa. The irradiation of intense circularly polarized femtosecond pules to magnetic materials can alter the magnetic orders […]

Ultrafast, reconfigurable all-optical beam steering and spatial light modulation

Kavli Affiliate: Harry Atwater | Summary:Achieving spatiotemporal control of light at subwavelength and subcycle scales is an important milestone in the development of new photonic materials and technologies. Ultrafast spatiotemporal light modulation currently relies on electronic interband and intraband transitions that yield pronounced refractive index changes but typically suffer from slow, picosecond response times due […]
