Magnetoplasmonic Design Rules for Active Magneto-Optics

Nonlocal nonlinear magneto-optical response of a magnetoplasmonic crystal

Femtosecond spectrotemporal magneto-optics.

A new method to measure and analyze the time and spectrally resolved polarimetric response of magnetic materials is presented. It allows us to study the ultrafast magnetization dynamics of a CoPt3 ferromagnetic film. The analysis of the pump-induced rotation and ellipticity detected by a broad spectrum probe beam shows that magneto-optical signals predominantly reflect the spin dynamics in ferr...

Extreme Ultraviolet Stokesmeter for Pulsed Magneto-Optics

Several applications in material science and magnetic holography using extreme ultraviolet (EUV) radiation require the measurement of the degree and state of polarization. In this work, an instrument to measure simultaneously both parameters from EUV pulses is presented. The instrument determines the Stokes parameters after a reflection on an array of multilayer mirrors at the Brewster angle. T...

Superconductor Magneto-optics and Theory

Some remarks are made on how to determine by magneto-optical imaging the electric currents flowing in a superconductor. The inversion problem is discussed how to compute these currents from the magnetic field measured in a planar magneto-optical indicator film positioned close to the conductor. Next, some geometries are listed for which the currents and magnetic fields can be computed from firs...
