Giant and controllable nonlinear magneto-optical effects in two-dimensional magnets

D. Wu, M. Ye, et al.

This groundbreaking research by Dezhao Wu, Meng Ye, Haowei Chen, Yong Xu, and Wenhui Duan explores giant nonlinear magneto-optical effects in 2D magnets, revealing astonishing changes in second-harmonics generation under magnetization reversal. With potential applications in multifunctional optical devices, their work lays the foundation for innovative magnetic ordering detection techniques.

Abstract
This paper investigates giant nonlinear magneto-optical (NLMO) effects in CrI₃-based 2D magnets using first-principles calculations. The study reveals a dramatic change in second-harmonics generation (SHG) polarization direction and intensity under magnetization reversal, along with a 100% SHG circular dichroism effect. These findings suggest potential applications in ultra-thin multifunctional optical devices and subtle magnetic ordering detection. The authors analytically derive conditions for giant NLMO effects and propose general strategies for realizing them in 2D magnets.
