Ultrafast dynamics of ferroics
Ultrafast laser-induced spin and lattice dynamics
Excitation of a condenced matter by short laser pulses results in a wide range of processes, from femtosecond raise of electronic temperature in metals, to optically-generated effective magnetic fields in transparent dielectrics. Can these processes be emploied for ultrafast manipulation of magnetization, spontaneous polarization?... (read more).
Ultrafast magnonics
In magnonics spin waves are used to transfer, store and process information with reduced heat dissipation. Can we combine methods of ultrafast magnetsm with magnonics to build ultrafast and efficient magnonic elements?... (read more).
High-frequency magnetoacoustics
Here we exploit interactions between high frequency phonons and magnons to optically manipulate magnetic materials at sub-THz frequencies.... (read more).
