Two-magnon bound state causes ultrafast thermally induced magnetisation switching (2013)
Journal Article
Barker, J., Atxitia, U., Hovorka, O., Ostler, T. A., Chubykalo-Fesenko, O., & Chantrell, R. W. (2013). Two-magnon bound state causes ultrafast thermally induced magnetisation switching. Scientific reports, 3, Article 3262. https://doi.org/10.1038/srep03262

There has been much interest recently in the discovery of thermally induced magnetisation switching using femtosecond laser excitation, where a ferrimagnetic system can be switched deterministically without an applied magnetic field. Experimental res... Read More about Two-magnon bound state causes ultrafast thermally induced magnetisation switching.

Ultrafast dynamical path for the switching of a ferrimagnet after femtosecond heating (2013)
Journal Article
Atxitia, U., Ostler, T., Barker, J., Evans, R. F., Chantrell, R. W., & Chubykalo-Fesenko, O. (2013). Ultrafast dynamical path for the switching of a ferrimagnet after femtosecond heating. Physical review B: Condensed matter and materials physics, 87(22), https://doi.org/10.1103/PhysRevB.87.224417

Ultrafast laser-induced magnetic switching in rare earth-transition metal ferrimagnetic alloys has recently been reported to occur by ultrafast heating alone. Using atomistic simulations and a ferrimagnetic Landau-Lifshitz-Bloch formalism, we demonst... Read More about Ultrafast dynamical path for the switching of a ferrimagnet after femtosecond heating.
