Since the first investigation of ultrafast magnetization dynamics in 1996, the question on driving mechanism(s) is still not resolved entirely. According to the predicted superdiffusive spin transport, we investigate the influence of hot electrons on the relative demagnetization.

Magnetization dynamics of an in-plane magnetized Ni film and an out-of-plane magnetized FePt film is measured using the all-optical pump-probe technique for various pump pulse fluences. To clarify the influence of hot electrons on the relative demagnetization, experiments with temporarily stretched pump pulses from 50 fs up to 2.5 ps are performed. These results are compared to simulations based on the Landau-Lifshitz-Bloch equation, which is based on the thermal model, and featured by the consideration of two spin temperature dependent relaxation times τ|| and τ. The electron temperature needed as input for the simulations is obtained from independent experiments on reflectivity dynamics. Compared to experiments, using ultrashort 80 fs pump pulses containing same energy per pulse, a lower maximum electron temperature is reached, but it is maintained for a longer time with the longer pump pulses.
