Outline of Final Research Achievements |
It have been widely known that "magnetic-field-free" ultrafast magnetization reversals are realized by applying femtosecond laser pulses to ferrimagnetic GdFeCo thin films. The applicant had so far showed that remarkably giant magnetic waves can also be induced by applying similar method in certain situations. In this project, the applicant had made progress in theoretical and experimental elucidation of the mechanism of this giant spin wave phenomenon, as well as in instrumental upgrading such as stabilized laser beams and experiment system under microwave excitations for advanced control of the spin waves. General properties and findings on light-induced spin manipulations for ferrimagnets have been obtained in the experiments.
