Depth-resolved magnetization dynamics in Fe thin films after ultrafast laser excitation

Valentin Chardonnet, Marcel Hennes, Romain Jarrier +12

We performed time-resolved x-ray resonant magnetic reflectivity measurements on a laser-excited ferromagnetic Fe thin film to simultaneously probe the transient structural and magn…

Time-Resolved XUV absorption spectroscopy and magnetic circular dichroism at the Ni -edges

Marcel Hennes, Benedikt Rösner, Valentin Chardonnet +21

Ultrashort optical pulses can trigger a variety of non-equilibrium processes in magnetic thin films affecting electrons and spins on femtosecond timescales. In order to probe the c…

Electron Dynamics at High-Energy Densities in Nickel from Non-linear Resonant X-ray Absorption Spectra

Robin Y. Engel, Oliver Alexander, Kaan Atak +40

The pulse intensity from X-ray free-electron lasers (FELs) can create extreme excitation densities in solids, entering the regime of non-linear X-ray-matter interactions. We show L…

Ultrafast time-evolution of chiral Néel magnetic domain walls probed by circular dichroism in x-ray resonant magnetic scattering

Cyril Léveillé, Erick Burgos-Parra, Yanis Sassi +18

Non-collinear spin textures in ferromagnetic ultrathin films are attracting a renewed interest fueled by possible fine engineering of several magnetic interactions, notably the int…

Simultaneous two-color snapshot view on ultrafast charge and spin dynamics in a Fe-Cu-Ni tri-layer

Benedikt Rösner, Boris Vodungbo, Valentin Chardonnet +19

Ultrafast phenomena on a femtosecond timescale are commonly examined by pump-probe experiments. This implies multiple measurements where the sample under investigation is pumped wi…

Ultrafast Opto-magnetic Effects in the Extreme Ultraviolet Spectral Range

Martin Hennecke, Clemens von Korff Schmising, Kelvin Yao +20

Coherent light-matter interactions mediated by opto-magnetic phenomena like the inverse Faraday effect (IFE) are expected to provide a non-thermal pathway for ultrafast manipulatio…
