Abstract
We observed the dynamics of the electric-field induced magnetization in antiferromagnetic chromium oxide (Cr2O3) by the Faraday-rotation measurement using a continuous-wave probe light in the millisecond region and a pulse probe light in the nanosecond region. It was found that the Faraday-rotation amplitude linearly depends on the electric field, decreases with increasing temperature, and disappears above the Néel temperature. In the nanosecond region, nanosecond rise of the electric-field induced Faraday-rotation signal was observed.
