Electronic Theory of Ultrafast Spin Dynamics in NiO
NiO is a good candidate for ultrafast magnetic switching because of its large spin density, antiferromagnetic order, and clearly separated intragap states. In order to detect and monitor the switching dynamics, we develop a systematic approach to study optical second harmonic generation (SHG) in NiO, both at the (001) surface and in the bulk. In our calculations NiO is modeled as a doubly embedded cluster. All intragap d-states of the bulk and the (001) surface are obtained with highly-correlational quantum chemistry and propagated in time und... view more»
