Terahertz frequency electromagnon and magnon modes in multiferroic cupric oxide

We examined the terahertz magnetoelectric response of cupric oxide, a high-temperature multiferroic with a cycloidal spin structure that induces an electrical polarisation. Terahertz time-domain spectroscopy at various temperatures and magnetic fields uncovered electromagnon and magnon modes, provid...
