Precise tuning of the Curie temperature of (Ga,Mn)As-based magnetic semiconductors by hole compensation: Support for valence-band ferromagnetism (2016)
Journal Article

For the prototype diluted ferromagnetic semiconductor (Ga,Mn)As, there is a fundamental concern about the electronic states near the Fermi level, i.e., whether the Fermi level resides in a well-separated impurity band derived from Mn doping (impurity...

Contributions from coherent and incoherent lattice excitations to ultrafast optical control of magnetic anisotropy of metallic films (2016)
Journal Article

Spin-lattice coupling is one of the most prominent interactions mediating response of spin ensemble to ultrafast optical excitation. Here we exploit optically generated coherent and incoherent phonons to drive coherent spin dynamics, i.e. precession,...

Ultrafast changes of magnetic anisotropy driven by laser-generated coherent and noncoherent phonons in metallic films (2016)
Journal Article

Ultrafast optical excitation of a metal ferromagnetic film results in a modification of the magnetocrystalline anisotropy and induces the magnetization precession. We consider two main contributions to these processes: an effect of noncoherent phonon...

The UK National Quantum Technologies Hub in sensors and metrology (Keynote Paper) (2016)
Journal Article

The UK National Quantum Technology Hub in Sensors and Metrology is one of four flagship initiatives in the UK National of Quantum Technology Program. As part of a 20-year vision it translates laboratory demonstrations to deployable practical devices,...

Three-dimensional Heisenberg critical behavior in the highly disordered dilute ferromagnetic semiconductor (Ga,Mn)As (2016)
Journal Article

We present detailed studies of critical behavior in the strongly site-disordered dilute ferromagnetic semiconductor (Ga,Mn)As. (Ga,Mn)As has a low saturation magnetization and relatively strong magnetocrystalline anisotropy. This combination of prop...

Electrical switching of an antiferromagnet (2016)
Journal Article

Antiferromagnets are hard to control by external magnetic fields because of the alternating directions of magnetic moments on individual atoms and the resulting zero net magnetization. However, relativistic quantum mechanics allows for generating cur... Read More about Electrical switching of an antiferromagnet.
