Transient ferromagnetic-like state mediating ultrafast reversal of antiferromagnetically coupled spins

TL;DR: It is found that the ultrafast spin reversal in GdFeCo, where spins are coupled antiferromagnetically, occurs by way of a transient ferromagnetic-like state, which provides a concept for the possibility of manipulating magnetic order on the timescale of the exchange interaction.
Journal ArticleDOI

Interface-induced phenomena in magnetism

TL;DR: This article reviews static and dynamic interfacial effects in magnetism, focusing on interfacially-driven magnetic effects and phenomena associated with spin-orbit coupling and intrinsic symmetry breaking at interfaces, identifying the most exciting new scientific results and pointing to promising future research directions.
Journal ArticleDOI

Femtosecond modification of electron localization and transfer of angular momentum in nickel.

TL;DR: It is shown that an efficient novel channel for angular momentum dissipation to the lattice can be opened by femtosecond laser excitation of a ferromagnet, and for the first time, the quenching of spin angular momentum and its transfer toThe lattice with a time constant of 120+/-70 fs is determined unambiguously with X-ray magnetic circular dichroism.
Journal ArticleDOI

Distinguishing the ultrafast dynamics of spin and orbital moments in solids

TL;DR: The important role played by the spin–orbit interaction in the ultrafast laser-induced demagnetization of ferromagnetic films is highlighted, and it is shown that the magneto-crystalline anisotropy energy is an important quantity to consider in such processes.
