The 161th Topical Symposium of the Magnetic Society of Japan / The 21st Topical Symposium of Spinelectronics
Recent Studies on Cooperative Phenomena between Magnetics and Optics
Since Michael Faraday discovered the rotation of the plane of polarized light in a magnetic field, magneto-optical effects are used to realize Kerr effect microscopes, optical isolators and magneto-optical disks. Recently, interaction between magnetics and optics enables to control magnetization by photons as well as controlling optical properties by magnetization, and we are concerned with new cooperative phenomena and devices such as metamaterials, nanoparticles, spin injection and detection in spin-LED, and manipulation of magnetization by light. In this joint symposium, researchers actively working in this field will give talks on their latest results and discuss the new relationship between magnetics and optics. We very much look forward to your participation.
