Spatially inhomogeneous inverse Faraday effect provides tunable nonthermal excitation of exchange dominated spin waves

We demonstrate optical nonthermal excitation of exchange dominated spin waves of different orders in a magnetophotonic crystal. The magnetophotonic structure consists of a thin magnetic film and a Bragg stack of nonmagnetic layers to provide a proper nonuniform interference pattern of the inverse Fa...
