光激发Ni薄膜自旋和轨道angular momentum在超快退磁过程中的飞秒X射线吸收谱

摘要:

利用X射线磁性圆二色性,首次研究了Ni薄膜在超快退磁过程中自旋和轨道角动量的演化。在用飞秒激光脉冲激发时,这两个分量都以130 +/- 40 fs的时间常数减小。额外的X射线吸收测量揭示了在该过程中自旋轨道相互作用增加了6 +/-2%。这是在退磁过程中量化自旋轨道介导的过程的重要性的实验演示。

英文摘要:

We follow for the first time the evolution of the spin and orbital angular momentum of a thin Ni film during ultrafast demagnetization, by means of x-ray magnetic circular dichroism. Both components decrease with a 130 +/- 40 fs time constant upon excitation with a femtosecond laser pulse. Additional x-ray absorption measurements reveal an increase in the spin-orbit interaction by 6 +/- 2 % during this process. This is the experimental demonstration quantifying the importance of spin-orbit mediated processes during the demagnetization.
