Nonthermal solid-solid phase transition in ferromagnetic iron
We posit the existence of a nonthermal phase transition in iron, driven by a loss of ferromagnetic ordering on ultrafast timescales with increasing electron temperature. The transition corresponds to a solid-solid BCC to FCC phase transformation and takes place at an electron temperature of 0.62 eV...
