Dynamics of photo-induced ferromagnetism in oxides with orbital degeneracy

Kavli Affiliate: Ankit Disa | First 5 Authors: Jonathan B. Curtis, Ankit Disa, Michael Fechner, Andrea Cavalleri, Prineha Narang | Summary: By using intense coherent electromagnetic radiation, it may be possible to manipulate the properties of quantum materials very quickly, or even induce new and potentially useful phases that are absent in equilibrium. For instance, […]

Multimode Nonlinear Dynamics in Anomalous Dispersion Spatiotemporal Mode-locked Lasers

Kavli Affiliate: Frank W. Wise | First 5 Authors: Yuhang Wu, Demetrios N. Christodoulides, Frank W. Wise, , | Summary: Spatiotemporal mode-locking in a laser with anomalous dispersion is investigated. Mode-locked states with varying modal content can be observed, but we find it difficult to observe highly multimode states. We describe the properties of these […]
