Demagnetizing fields in all-optical switching
arXiv:1709.06611 · doi:10.1088/1361-648X/aa9e39
Abstract
Time-resolved pump-probe measurements show ultrafast and heat accumulation demagnetization in Co/Pd superlattices on glass substrates. A model of demagnetizing fields and micromagnetic simulations are applied to examine the evolution of a demagnetized cylinder into a switched state.
