Nanoscale detection and control of the magnetic order underpins a spectrum of condensed-matter research and device functionalities involving magnetism. The key principle involved is the breaking of time-reversal symmetry, which in ferromagnets is gen... Read More about Nanoscale imaging and control of altermagnetism in MnTe.

Enhanced Photon–Phonon Interaction in WSe2 Acoustic Nanocavities (2024)
Journal Article
Carr, A. D., Ruppert, C., Samusev, A. K., Magnabosco, G., Vogel, N., Linnik, T. L., Rushforth, A. W., Bayer, M., Scherbakov, A. V., & Akimov, A. V. (2024). Enhanced Photon–Phonon Interaction in WSe2 Acoustic Nanocavities. ACS Photonics, 11(3), 1147–1155. https://doi.org/10.1021/acsphotonics.3c01601

Acoustic nanocavities (ANCs) with resonance frequencies much above 1 GHz are prospective to be exploited in sensors and quantum operating devices. Nowadays, acoustic nanocavities fabricated from van der Waals (vdW) nanolayers allow them to exhibit re... Read More about Enhanced Photon–Phonon Interaction in WSe2 Acoustic Nanocavities.

Hybrid coherent control of magnons in a ferromagnetic phononic resonator excited by laser pulses (2024)
Journal Article
Scherbakov, A. V., Carr, A. D., Linnik, T. L., Kukhtaruk, S. M., Armour, A. D., Nadzeyka, A., Rushforth, A. W., Akimov, A. V., & Bayer, M. (2024). Hybrid coherent control of magnons in a ferromagnetic phononic resonator excited by laser pulses. Physical Review Research, 6(1), Article L012019. https://doi.org/10.1103/PhysRevResearch.6.L012019

We propose and demonstrate the concept of hybrid coherent control (CC) whereby a quantum or classical harmonic oscillator is excited by two excitations: one is quasiharmonic (i.e., harmonic with a finite lifetime) and the other is a pulsed broadband...
