Element resolved magnetisation dynamics in Fe1−xNix thin films — •Stefan Buschhorn, Frank Brüssing, Benjamin Glaubitz, Radu Abrudan, and Hartmut Zabel — Experimentalphysik IV, Ruhr-Universität Bochum
X-Ray Resonant Magnetic Scattering (XRMS) in combination with pump-probe techniques is a unique tool in order to directly observe element-resolved magnetisation dynamics. We present a time resolved setup with a time resolution of less than 100ps, using a magnetic field pulse excitation. The sample is mounted on a stripline and the reflected signal is averaged over many excitations in a delay scan with respect to the synchrotron flash. The experiments were done using the ALICE diffractometer [1]. We present results on the precessional dynamics of a Py sample in a temperature range from 80…350K, showing that both Fe and Ni precess in phase within the given resolution (see also [2]). There is no discernable change in temperature over the temperature range studied. In addition, we followed the frequency dependence of the precession as a function of alloy composition for a set of Fe1−xNix thin films in order to reveal possible variations around the invar region.
