We develop a theoretical description of electro-magnon solitons in a coupled ferroelectric-ferromagnetic heterostructure. The solitons are considered in the weakly nonlinear limit as a modulation of plane waves corresponding to two, electric- and magnetic-like branches in the spectrum. Emphasis is put on magnetic-like envelope solitons that can be created by an alternating electric field. It is shown also that the magnetic pulses can be amplified by an electric field with a frequency close to the band edge of the magnetic branch.

We study coupling between the ferroelectric polarization and magnetization of granular ferromagnetic film using a phenomenological model of combined multiferroic system consisting of granular ferromagnetic film placed above the ferroelectric (FE) lay er. The coupling is due to screening of Coulomb interaction in the granular film by the FE layer. Below the FE Curie temperature the magnetization has hysteresis as a function of electric field. Below the magnetic ordering temperature the polarization has hysteresis as a function of magnetic field. We study the magneto-electric coupling for weak and strong spatial dispersion of the FE layer. The effect of mutual influence decreases with increasing the spatial dispersion of the FE layer. For weak dispersion the strongest coupling occurs in the vicinity of the ferroelectric-paraelectric phase transition. For strong dispersion the situation is the opposite. We study the magneto-electric coupling as a function of distance between the FE layer and the granular film. For large distances the coupling decays exponentially due to the exponential decrease of electric field produced by the oscillating charges in the granular ferromagnetic film.
A simple mechanical analog describing Landau-Zener tunneling effect is proposed using two weakly coupled chains of nonlinear oscillators with gradually decreasing (first chain) and increasing (second chain) masses. The model allows to investigate non linear generalization of Landau-Zener tunneling effect considering soliton propagation and tunneling between the chains. It is shown that soliton tunneling characteristics become drastically dependent on its amplitude in nonlinear regime. The validity of the developed tunneling theory is justified via comparison with direct numerical simulations on oscillator ladder system.

Semiconductor microcavities operating in the polaritonic regime are highly non-linear, high speed systems due to the unique half-light, half-matter nature of polaritons. Here, we report for the first time the observation of propagating multi-soliton polariton patterns consisting of multi-peak structures either along (x) or perpendicular to (y) the direction of propagation. Soliton arrays of up to 5 solitons are observed, with the number of solitons controlled by the size or power of the triggering laser pulse. The break-up along the x direction occurs due to interplay of bistability, negative effective mass and polariton-polariton scattering, while in the y direction the break-up results from nonlinear phase-dependent interactions of propagating fronts. We show the experimental results are in good agreement with numerical modelling. Our observations are a step towards ultrafast all-optical signal processing using sequences of solitons as bits of information.
Using newly developed quantum-classical hybrid framework, we investigate interaction between spin-polarized conduction electrons and a single spin wave (SW) coherently excited within a metallic ferromagnetic nanowire. When the nanowire hosting SW is attached to two normal metal (NM) leads, with no dc bias voltage applied between them, the SW pumps chiral electronic charge and spin currents into the leads---their direction is tied to the direction of SW propagation and they scale linearly with the frequency of the precession. This is in contrast to: standard pumping by the uniform precession mode with identical spin currents flowing in both directions and no accompanying charge current; or experimentally observed [C.~Ciccarelli et al., Nat. Nanotech. 10, 50 (2014); M.~Evelt et al., Phys. Rev. B 95, 024408 (2017)] magnonic charge pumping which requires spin-orbit coupling spin-orbit coupling. The mechanism behind our prediction is nonadiabaticity due to time-retardation effects---motion of localized magnetic moment affects conduction electron spin in a retarded way, so that it takes a finite time until the electron spin reacts to the motion of the classical vector. Upon injecting dc spin-polarized charge current from the left NM lead, electrons interact with SW where outflowing charge and spin current into the right NM lead are changed due to both scattering off time-dependent potential generated by the SW and superposition with the currents pumped by the SW itself. Using Lorentzian voltage pulse to excite leviton out of the Fermi sea, which carries one electron charge with no accompanying electron-hole pairs and behaves as soliton-like quasiparticle, we describe how a single electron interacts with a single SW.
Exciton-polariton solitons are strongly nonlinear quasiparticles composed of coupled exciton-photon states due to the interaction of light with matter. In semiconductor microcavity systems such as semiconductor micro and nanowires, polaritons are cha racterized by a negative mass which when combined with the repulsive nonlinear exciton-exciton interaction, leads to the generation of bright polariton solitons. In this work we investigate the dynamics of bright exciton-polariton solitons in a finite-size microcavity waveguide, for which radiative losses are assumed balanced by the external pumping. An exact bright-soliton solution to the model equations of motion, consisting of a periodic train of polariton pulses, is obtained in terms of Jacobi elliptic functions. Exact analytical expressions corresponding to the energies of both photonic and excitonic components of the pulse train are found. Results suggest that the size (i.e. the length) of a microwire waveguide plays a relevant role in obtaining a quantitative estimate of the energy that could be conveyed by polariton solitons propagating in the medium.
