Ultrafast entropy production in pump-probe experiments

open access: yesNature Communications
The ultrafast control of materials has opened the possibility to investigate non-equilibrium states of matter with striking properties, such as transient superconductivity and ferroelectricity, ultrafast magnetization and demagnetization, as well as ...

Hot-Electron-Induced Ultrafast Demagnetization in Co / Pt Multilayers [PDF]

open access: yes, 2016
International audienceUsing specially engineered structures to tailor the optical absorption in a metallic multilayer, we analyze the magnetization dynamics of a Co=Pt multilayer buried below a thick Cu layer.

Study of the role of interfaces in ultrafast demagnetization

open access: yes, 2022
The models explaining the ultrafast quenching of magnetization following femtosecond optical excitationcan be classified into two broad categories relying either on a local or a non-local transfer of angular momentum. In this PhD, I demonstrate how the soft X-ray magnetic reflectivity in a pump-probe geometry is sensitive to local and non-local ...

Optical generation of intense ultrashort magnetic pulses at the nanoscale [PDF]

open access: yes, 2013
Generating, controlling and sensing strong magnetic fields at ever shorter time and length scales is important for both fundamental solid-state physics and technological applications such as magnetic data recording.

Ultrafast Local Magnetization and Demagnetization in Heusler Alloys

open access: yes, 2016
With the goal of pushing Spintronic devices towards faster and faster timescales, we demonstrate, using ab-intio time-dependent density functional theory simulations of bulk Heusler compounds subject to ultrashort intense laser pulses, that the local magnetic moment can increase or decrease in a few femtoseconds.

Time resolved magneto-optical measurements of ultrafast demagnetization dynamics [PDF]

open access: yes, 2013
In 1996 a paper by Beaurepaire et al. [PRL, 1996] reported on an ultrafast magneto-optic investigation on Nickel. It showed an ultrafast reduction of magnetization within the first picoseconds and a subsequent recovery on a slower time scale.
