State-resolved ultrafast charge and spin dynamics in [Co/Pd] multilayers

Loïc Le Guyader, Daniel J. Higley, Matteo Pancaldi +17

We use transient absorption spectroscopy with circularly polarized x-rays to detect laser-excited hole states below the Fermi level and compare their dynamics with that of unoccupi…

Spin-current-mediated rapid magnon localisation and coalescence after ultrafast optical pumping of ferrimagnetic alloys

E. Iacocca, T-M. Liu, A. H. Reid +31

Sub-picosecond magnetisation manipulation via femtosecond optical pumping has attracted wide attention ever since its original discovery in 1996. However, the spatial evolution of…
