We experimentally study the tunability of the cooperativity in coupled spin--cavity systems by changing the magnetic state of the spin system via an external control parameter. As model system, we use the skyrmion host material Cu$_2$OSeO$_3$ coupled to a microwave cavity resonator. In the different magnetic phases we measure a dispersive coupling between the resonator and the magnon modes and model our results by using the input--output formalism. Our results show a strong tunability of the normalized coupling rate by magnetic field, allowing us to change the magnon--photon cooperativity from 1 to 60 at the phase boundaries of the skyrmion lattice state.

The origin of the emission within the optical mode of a coupled quantum dot-micropillar system is investigated. Time-resolved photoluminescence is performed on a large number of deterministically coupled devices in a wide range of temperature and detuning. The emission within the cavity mode is found to exhibit the same dynamics as the spectrally closest quantum dot state. Our observations indicate that fast dephasing of the quantum dot state is responsible for the emission within the cavity mode. An explanation for recent photon correlation measurements reported on similar systems is proposed.
Motivated by the importance of understanding competing mechanisms to current-induced spin-orbit torque in complex magnets, we develop a unified theory of current-induced spin-orbital coupled dynamics. The theory describes angular momentum transfer between different degrees of freedom in solids, e.g., the electron orbital and spin, the crystal lattice, and the magnetic order parameter. Based on the continuity equations for the spin and orbital angular momenta, we derive equations of motion that relate spin and orbital current fluxes and torques describing the transfer of angular momentum between different degrees of freedom. We then propose a classification scheme for the mechanisms of the current-induced torque in magnetic bilayers. Based on our first-principles implementation, we apply our formalism to two different magnetic bilayers, Fe/W(110) and Ni/W(110), which are chosen such that the orbital and spin Hall effects in W have opposite sign and the resulting spin- and orbital-mediated torques can compete with each other. We find that while the spin torque arising from the spin Hall effect of W is the dominant mechanism of the current-induced torque in Fe/W(110), the dominant mechanism in Ni/W(110) is the orbital torque originating in the orbital Hall effect of W. It leads to negative and positive effective spin Hall angles, respectively, which can be directly identified in experiments. This clearly demonstrates that our formalism is ideal for studying the angular momentum transfer dynamics in spin-orbit coupled systems as it goes beyond the spin current picture by naturally incorporating the spin and orbital degrees of freedom on an equal footing. Our calculations reveal that, in addition to the spin and orbital torque, other contributions such as the interfacial torque and self-induced anomalous torque within the ferromagnet are not negligible in both material systems.
Coupled atom-cavity arrays, such as those described by the Jaynes-Cummings Hubbard model, have the potential to emulate a wide range of condensed matter phenomena. In particular, the strongly correlated states of the fractional quantum Hall effect can be realised. At some filling fractions, the fraction quantum Hall effect has been shown to possess ground states with non-abelian excitations. The most well studied of these states is the Pfaffian state of Moore and Read, which is the groundstate of a Hall Liquid with a 3-body interaction. In this paper we show how an effective 3-body interaction can be generated within the Cavity QED framework, and that a Pfaffian-like groundstate of these systems exists.
Spin-flop transition (SFT) consists in a jump-like reversal of antiferromagnetic magnetic moments into a non-collinear state when the magnetic field increases above the critical value. Potentially the SFT can be utilized in many applications of a rapidly developing antiferromagnetic spintronics. However, the difficulty of using them in conventional antiferromagnets lies in (a) too large switching magnetic fields (b) the need for presence of a magnetic anisotropy, and (c) requirement to apply magnetic field along the correspondent anisotropy axis. In this work we propose to use artificial ferrimagnets in which the spin-flop transition occurs without anisotropy and the transition field can be lowered by adjusting exchange coupling in the structure. This is proved by experiment on artificial Fe-Gd ferrimagnets where usage of Pd spacers allowed us to suppress the transition field by two orders of magnitude.
We have studied polariton spin dynamics in a GaAs/AlGaAs microcavity by means of polarization- and time-resolved photoluminescence spectroscopy as a function of excitation density and normal mode splitting. The experiments reveal a novel behavior of the degree of polarization of the emission, namely the existence of a finite delay to reach its maximum value. We have also found that the stimulated emission of the lower polariton branch has a strong influence on spin dynamics: in an interval of $sim$150 ps the polarization changes from +100% to negative values as high as -60%. This strong modulation of the polarization and its high speed may open new possibilities for spin-based devices.
