Ultrafast Modulation of Magnetization Dynamics in Ferromagnetic (Ga, Mn)As Thin Films

Magnetization precession induced by linearly polarized optical excitation in ferromagnetic (Ga,Mn)As was studied by time-resolved magneto-optical Kerr effect measurements. The superposition of thermal and non-thermal effects arising from the laser pulses complicates the analysis of magnetization pre...
