Using the time-resolved magneto-optical Kerr effect method, helicity-dependent all-optical magnetization switching (HD-AOS) is observed in ferrimagnetic TbFeCo films. Our results reveal the individual roles of the thermal and nonthermal effects after... Read More about Roles of heating and helicity in ultrafast all-optical magnetization switching in TbFeCo.
