High-order harmonic generation (HHG) in solids has entered a new phase of intensive research, with envisioned band-structure mapping on an ultrashort time scale. This partly benefits from a flurry of new HHG materials discovered, but so far has missed an important group. HHG in magnetic materials should have profound impact on future magnetic storage technology advances. Here we introduce and demonstrate HHG in ferromagnetic monolayers. We find that HHG carries spin information and sensitively depends on the relativistic spin–orbit coupling; and if they are dispersed into the crystal momentum k space, harmonics originating from real transitions can be k-resolved and …

The a 4Σ−–X 2Π1/2 transition of GeH has been recorded in absorption for the first time using Intracavity Laser Spectroscopy (ILS). The GeH molecules were produced in a 0.40–0.60 A DC plasma discharge inside an aluminum hollow cathode, using 500 mTorr of Ar, 100 mTorr of H2, and 200 mTorr of GeH4. This cathode is located within the resonator cavity of a Coherent Verdi™ V-10 pumped dye laser. Effective path lengths for this series of measurements using the ILS method ranged from 2 to 7 km. Spectra were calibrated using the absorption spectrum of I2 collected from an extracavity cell, …
