Driving Force of Ultrafast Magnetization Dynamics
Benedikt Y. Mueller, T. Roth, M. Cinchetti +2
Irradiating a ferromagnetic material with an ultrashort laser pulse leads to demagnetization on a femtosecond timescale. We implement Elliott-Yafet type spin-flip scattering, media…

Ultrafast demagnetization of ferromagnetic transition metals: The role of the Coulomb interaction
Michael Krauss, Tobias Roth, Sabine Alebrand +4
The Elliott-Yafet mechanism is arguably the most promising candidate to explain the ultrafast demagnetization dynamics in ferromagnetic transition metals on timescales on the order…
