Controlling Single-Pulse Magnetization Switching through Angular Momentum Reservoir Engineering

B. Kunyangyuen, G. Malinowski, D. Lacour +6

We report a systematic study of single pulse all optical helicity independent switching in CoGd bilayers, revealing that the magnetization reversal dynamics can be tuned over more…

Megahertz-rate Ultrafast X-ray Scattering and Holographic Imaging at the European XFEL

Nanna Zhou Hagström, Michael Schneider, Nico Kerber +97

The advent of X-ray free-electron lasers (XFELs) has revolutionized fundamental science, from atomic to condensed matter physics, from chemistry to biology, giving researchers acce…

Skyrmion pinning energetics in thin film systems

Raphael Gruber, Jakub Zázvorka, Maarten A. Brems +7

A key issue for skyrmion dynamics and devices are pinning effects present in real systems. While posing a challenge for the realization of conventional skyrmionics devices, exploit…

Direct imaging of chiral domain walls and Néel-type skyrmionium in ferrimagnetic alloys

Boris Seng, Daniel Schönke, Javier Yeste +15

The evolution of chiral spin structures is studied in ferrimagnet Ta/Ir/Fe/GdFeCo/Pt multilayers as a function of temperature using scanning electron microscopy with polarization a…

Commensurability between element symmetry and the number of skyrmions governing skyrmion diffusion in confined geometries

Chengkun Song, Nico Kerber, Jan Rothörl +10

Magnetic skyrmions are topological magnetic structures, which exhibit quasi-particle properties and can show enhanced stability against perturbation from thermal noise. Recently, t…

Faster chiral versus collinear magnetic order recovery after optical excitation revealed by femtosecond XUV scattering

Nico Kerber, Dmitriy Ksenzov, Frank Freimuth +11

While chiral spin structures stabilized by Dzyaloshinskii-Moriya interaction (DMI) are candidates as novel information carriers, their dynamics on the fs-ps timescale is little kno…
