چکیده

We show theoretically that stimulated spin-flip Raman scattering can be used to inject spin currents in doped semiconductors with spin-split bands. A pure spin current, where oppositely oriented spins move in opposite directions, can be injected in zinc blende crystals and structures. The calculated spin current should be detectable by pump-probe optical spectroscopy and anomalous Hall effect measurement.

Spectroscopy, Structural, and Optical Investigations of NiFe2O4 Ferrite

Ni ferrite crystalline material is synthesized using a sol-gel method at two different temperatures. The vibrational and stretching modes, crystalline phase, size distribution and morphology of the products are investigated via Raman back-scattering and Fourier transform infrared (FTIR) spectroscopy, XRD and FESEM, respectively. Vibrational modes of spinel ferrite are observed at Raman and FTIR...

Spin-orbit splitting in single-layer MoS2 revealed by triply resonant Raman scattering.

Although new spintronic devices based on the giant spin-orbit splitting of single-layer MoS(2) have been proposed, such splitting has not been studied effectively in experiments. This Letter reports the valence band spin-orbit splitting in single-layer MoS(2) for the first time, probed by the triply resonant Raman scattering process. We found that upon 325 nm laser irradiation, the second order...

Theoretical investigation of the inverse Faraday effect via a stimulated Raman scattering process

We study theoretically the origin and mechanism of the ultrafast inverse Faraday effect, which is a magnetooptical effect, attracting much interest nowadays. Laser-induced subpicosecond spin dynamics in hydrogenlike systems and isolated many-electron atoms are investigated in order to get insight into this process. We show that the stimulated Raman scattering process leads to a change of the ma...

Spin coherence excitation and rephasing with optically shelved atoms

We investigate the use of resonant optical Raman pulses to excite and rephase ground state spin coherences via the partial storage or shelving of atoms. Unlike direct-rf-excited spin echoes or off-resonant Raman echoes, the resonant Raman optical field efficiently excites and rephases the spin coherence using p and 2p pulses, respectively. In a crystal of Pr doped Y2SiO5, we experimentally obse...

Investigation of Scalar Modulation Instability in the Presence of Raman Scattering in Photonic Crystal Fibers

In this paper, by including Raman scattering in the coupled-mode equations, the scalar modulation instability in photonic crystal fibers is investigated. The evolution of the pump, Stokes and anti-Stokes waves along the fiber as well as the conversion efficiency for two cases, with and without Raman effect, are studied. The effect of anti-Stokes seed and the pump depletion on the evolution of S...
