Magnetization dynamics in Ni on the picosecond timescale — •Martin Lüttich1, Jakob Walowski1, Andreas Mann1, Markus Münzenberg1, Unai Atxitia2, and Oksana Chubykalo-Fesenko21I. Physikalisches Institut, Universität Göttingen — 2Instituto de Ciencia de Materiales de Madrid

Magnetization dynamics of polycrystalline nickel films are measured using the all-optical pump-probe technique for various pump pulse fluences. The parallel treatment of photons, electrons, phonons and magnetic correlations of the system amounts a challenge to the microscopic theoretical description. At the same time different length and time scales are involved.

We investigate the influence of hot electrons on the relative demagnetization. Performing the experiment for different pump fluences, we measure a higher relative demagnetization at higher fluences. These results are compared to simulations with the Landau-Lifshitz-Bloch equation, which is based on a thermal model, and featured by the consideration of two electron temperature dependent relaxation times τ and τ||. The electron temperature needed as input for the simulations is extracted from experiments.
