Optically controlling the competition between spin flips and intersite spin transfer in a Heusler half-metal on sub-100-fs time scales. [PDF]
The direct manipulation of spins via light may provide a path toward ultrafast energy-efficient devices. However, distinguishing the microscopic processes that can occur during ultrafast laser excitation in magnetic alloys is challenging.

Nonlinear TMOKE enhancement in 1D Au/Py magnetoplasmonic crystals
Abstract Resonant optical properties of the magnetoplasmonic crystals, which support propagation of surface plasmon polaritons (SPPs) accompanied by magnetooptical effects, have found success in magnetic field driven control of optical radiation.

Magneto-optical heterostructures with second resonance of transverse magneto-optical Kerr effect [PDF]
Two conventional magneto-plasmonic (MP) structures are firstly superimposed with mirror symmetry to form a symmetric MP heterostructure. These two MP components are separated from each other by a noble metallic layer.

TMOKE enhancement in structured all-dielectric iron-garnet films with waveguide modes
Abstract The idea of using nanostructured all-dielectric structures to enhance magneto-optical effects instead of plasmonic ones is attracting much interest. The use of dielectric materials allows one to avoid significant energy losses that are present in metals.

VIS-NIR TMOKE enhanced dielectric-metal hybrid structure for high performance dual-channel sensing
Magneto-plasmon sensors based on the transverse magneto-optical Kerr effect (TMOKE) have been extensively studied in recent years. In this paper, we theoretically propose a hybrid structure composed of a one-dimensional bismuth iron garnet: yttrium iron garnet (BIG: YIG) nanowire arrays and thin film stack, which is grown on an infinite thick silicon ...
