Thermally assisted magnetization reversal in nanostructures

Magnetization reversal in Co nanostructures is simulated over a wide range of time-scales, from fast switching processes on a ps time-scale to thermally activated reversal on a μs time-scale. Langevin dynamics is used as well as time quantified Monte Carlo methods for the simulation of a classical spin system modeling elongated Co nano-particles. We study the behavior of the magnetization durin...

Nanoscale spin reversal by non-local angular momentum transfer following ultrafast laser excitation in ferrimagnetic GdFeCo

In section 1.1 we detail the experimental setup used at the SXR beamline of the Linac Coherent Light Source. This is followed by section 1.2 detailing the sample preparation and the x-ray characterization performed at beamline 13-3 of the Stanford Synchrotron Radiation Lightsource. In section 1.3 we detail how spin sensitivity is achieved in resonant x-ray scattering and subsequently in section...
