Monitoring laser-induced magnetization in FeRh by transient terahertz emission spectroscopy
2020
In this study, a conceptually different approach for investigating magnetic phase transitions in ultra-thin films is presented. THz emission from a laser-excited material is used to monitor the magnetization dynamics during the laser-driven antiferromagnetic to ferromagnetic transition in FeRh. The emitted THz signal is calibrated against static magnetometry data measurements, giving a direct measure of the absolute magnetic moment of the sample on the sub-picosecond timescale. The technique is, therefore, highly complementary to conventional time-resolved experiments such as time resolved magneto-optic Kerr effect (MOKE) or x-ray magnetic circular dichroism.
