AB - Ultrafast electric-field control of emergent electronic and magnetic states at oxide interfaces offers exciting prospects for the development of the next generation of energy-efficient devices. Here, it is demonstrated that the electronic structure and emergent ferromagnetic interfacial state in epitaxial LaNiO3/CaMnO3 superlattices can be effectively controlled using intense, single-cycle THz electric-field pulses. A suite of advanced X-ray spectroscopic techniques is employed to measure a detailed magneto-optical profile and the thickness of the ferromagnetic interfacial layer. Then, a combination of time-resolved and temperature-dependent optical measurements is used to disentangle several correlated electronic and magnetic processes driven by ultrafast, high-field THz pulses. Sub-picosecond non-equilibrium Joule heating of the electronic system is observed, ultrafast demagnetization of the ferromagnetic interfacial layer, and slower dynamics indicative of a change in the magnetic state of the superlattice due to the transfer of spin-angular momentum to the lattice. These findings suggest a promising avenue for the efficient control of 2D ferromagnetic states at oxide interfaces using ultrafast electric-field pulses.
