Abstract:
I will discuss how coherent
electromagnetic radiation at TeraHertz frequencies
can be used to drive complex solids
periodically, creating non-thermal states with
unconventional types of microscopic order
and new functional properties.
Important examples involve the nonlinear
control of the crystal lattice, to induce
atomic-structural deformations often not
possible in equilibrium, and used by our
group to induce interesting collective
states at high temperatures, including
magnetic order, ferroelectricity and
non-equilibrium superconductivity.
