| contents | Orbital current, defined as the orbital character of Bloch states in solids, can ballistically travel with larger coherence length through a broader range of materials than its spin counterpart, facilitating a robust, higher density and energy efficient information transmission. Hence, active control of orbital transport plays a pivotal role in propelling the progress of the evolving field of quantum information technology. Unlike spin angular momentum, orbital angular momentum (OAM), couples to phonon angular momentum (PAM) efficiently via orbital-crystal momentum (L-k) coupling, giving us the opportunity to control orbital transport through crystal field potential mediated angular momentum transfer. Here, leveraging the orbital dependant efficient L-k coupling, we have experimentally demonstrated the active control of orbital current velocity using THz emission spectroscopy. Our findings include the identification of a critical energy density required to overcome collisions in orbital transport, enabling a swifter flow of orbital current. The capability to actively control the ballistic orbital transport lays the groundwork for the development of ultrafast devices capable of efficiently transmitting information over extended distance. |
