We theoretically investigate pumping of phonons by the dynamics of a magnetic film into a nonmagnetic contact. The enhanced damping due to the loss of energy and angular momentum shows interference patterns as a function of the resonance frequency and magnetic film thickness that cannot be described by viscous ("Gilbert") damping. The phonon pumping depends on the magnetization direction as well as geometrical and material parameters and is observable, e.g., in thin films of yttrium iron garnet on a thick dielectric substrate.

We theoretically investigated optomechanically induced transparency (OMIT) and slow light in a microcavity optomechanical system containing three nanoparticles, where the pump-probe field drives the cavity and a weak phonon pump drives the mechanical resonator. When the phonon pump frequency matches the pump-probe field frequency difference, adjusting the phonon pump's amplitude and phase can result in the transparency window exceeding unity. Tuning the relative positions of nanoparticles can periodically steer the system to exceptional points (EPs), further enhancing and modulating the transparency window.

The MNS is made of a metallic core and a dielectric shell. The results show that, the four-wave mixing signal is suppressed significantly due to multipole polarizations in comparison to that in the dipole approximation.

Since the recent discovery of polar topologies, a recurrent question has been how to remotely tune them. Many efforts have focused on the pumping of polar optical phonons from optical methods, but with limited success, as only switching between specific phases has been achieved so far. Additionally, the correlation between optical pulse characteristics and the resulting phase is poorly understood.

To address the issue of spatial resolution limitations in traditional Brillouin optical time-domain analysis systems due to phonon lifetime constraints, we employed pre-pumped pulse technology. Additionally, to mitigate the double-peak phenomenon observed in pre-pumped Brillouin optical time-domain analysis systems, we implemented a two-sided band interference method to reduce the linewidth of the double-peak fitting. We conducted bending measurements on three eccentric cores and intermediate cores spaced 120° apart.

Continuous-wave (CW) yellow lasers have been demonstrated successfully by using a GaN laser-diode (LD) pumping in borate crystals for the first time. The Dy:GdMgBO (Dy:GMB) crystal with dimensions up to 33 × 19 × 15 mm is grown by the top-seeded solution growth method, and the polarized spectroscopic properties are investigated systematically at room temperature. The line strengths, Judd-Ofelt (J-O) intensity, spontaneous transition rates, fluorescence branching ratios, and radiative lifetimes are calculated in detail by the Judd-Ofelt theory.
