From Ultrafast Demagnetization to Ultrafast Spintronics : a 30 years story
The discovery of femtosecond laser-induced ultrafast demagnetization in 1996 opened a new field, femtomagnetism, in which magnetic order can be quenched on timescales shorter than a picosecond. This seminal observation revealed that angular momentum can be transferred out of the spin system with unprecedented speed, launching intense efforts to ...

Inhomogeneous magnon scattering during ultrafast demagnetization
Ni$_{0.8}$Fe$_{0.2}$ (Py) and Py alloyed with Cu exhibit intriguing ultrafast demagnetization behavior, where the Ni magnetic moment shows a delayed response relative to the Fe, an effect which is strongly enhanced by Cu alloying. We have studied a broad range of Cu concentrations to elucidate the effects of Cu alloying in Py. The orbital/spin magnetic

Charge and spin current pumping by ultrafast demagnetization dynamics [PDF]
The surprising discovery of ultrafast demagnetization -- where electric field of femtosecond laser pulse couples to electrons of a ferromagnetic (FM) layer causing its magnetization vector {\em to shrink while not rotating}, is also assumed to be ...

Heisenberg vs. Stoner : Probing the Microscopic Picture of Ultrafast Demagnetization using High Harmonics [PDF]
We uncover the multiple mechanisms underlying laser-driven demagnetization in cobalt using a tabletop high harmonic source. Ultrafast magnon excitation, as well as a transient reduction of the exchange splitting, are both important on femtosecond ...
