In the presented work, we investigated alloys of Ni and Pd with varying mixing ratios focusing on the magnetization dynamics on different timescales. For this purpose, we characterized the samples using a vibrating sample magnetometer and ferromagnetic resonance in order to determine the Curie temperature TC and the picosecond dynamics, respectively. The latter is described by the Gilbert damping parameter α. Both quantities depend strongly on the stoichiometry and can be tuned very precisely over a wide range by changing the Pd concentration. Additionally, we carried out a thorough investigation of the laser-induced demagnetization time τM on the femtosecond timescale employing a time-resolved MOKE setup. According to the theoretical model published in [1], the dynamics on both timescales is related and the proportionality is mainly defined by TC. Using the measured values for α and τM, we study the applicability of the theory for a ferromagnetic d-alloy and consequently the underlying fundamental processes.
