| Research Abstract |
It is elucidated experimentally that the magnetic response to light irradiation is very diverse in magnetic materials. When the material is irradiated by a circularly polarized light for paramagnetic complexes angular momentum is transferred to the spin system giving rise to different polarities in spin orientation depending on the absorption bands resulting from the symmetry of spin-orbit coupling. Also, for Fe(III) spin system in organic solution with S=5/2 photo-induced Zeeman coherence was successfully detected as a free-induction decay signal in the external magnetic field perpendicular to the light beam. On the other hand regardless of light polarization optically initiated Zeeman state mixing in the presence of magnetic field creates adiabatic spin orientation and exhibits characteristic magnetic-field dependence. For a particular case such a spin orientation by the state mixing can contribute to identification of mono-nuclear complex and di-nuclear complex. For magnetically ordered systems although the magnetic responses to light irradiation are mostly those originating from heat injection, interesting photo-triggered effects such as the fast domain-wall oscillation and magnetization inversion depending on the applied magnetic field, light intensity, and temperature.
A variety of photo-responses mentioned above are all detected with the nanosecond time resolution. These responses strongly suggest interest and importance of further improvement of time resolution in magnetic detection.
