It has been proposed that circularly polarised phonons can induce transient magnetisation in materials when driven by ultrafast laser pulses via the atomistic scale Barnett effect. In this ongoing study, we want to directly link the observation of circular atomic motion with magnetisation in 2D Van der Waals room temperature ferromagnetic materials. We have recently induced circularly polarised coherent phonons by a pair of femto-second laser pulses in a non-magnetic material namely graphite and detected the resulting lattice dynamics using Ultrafast Electron Diffraction (UED). In this contribution, we will review the results on graphite and show our recent progress in exfoliating ferromagnetic 2D materials. Furthermore, we will explore magnetisation measurements of our microscopic samples using Kerr microscopy and vibrating sample magnetometry.
