Coherent Magnetization Precession in GaMnAs induced by Ultrafast Optical Excitation

AbstractWe use femtosecond optical pulses to induce, control and monitor magnetization precession in ferromagnetic Ga0.965Mn0.035As. At temperatures below ~40 K we observe coherent oscillations of local Mn spins, triggered by an ultrafast photo-induced reorientation of the in-plane easy axis due to a transient change in the magnetic anisotropy. The amplitude saturation of the oscillations above a certain pump intensity indicates that the easy axis orientation is fixed above ~TC/2. Our measurements suggest that the observed magnetization precession damping (Gilbert damping) is strongly dependent on pump laser intensity, but not on ambient temperature.
