Abstract
Ultrafast demagnetization excited by laser pulses introduces the technological possibility for controlling the magnetic properties of materials on sub-picosecond regime. In this paper, the demagnetization dynamics of amorphous ferrimagnetic TbFeCo alloy is modeled by using the stochastic Landau-Lifshitz-Gilbert equation on an atomistic level. The transition metal (Fe, Co) and rare earth (Tb) atoms are constructed by two different sub-lattice systems. Laser-heating induced demagnetization processes are clearly demonstrated by a series of snapshots. Our simulations show that full demagnetization on the sub-picosecond time scale requires a temperature over the Curie point, and the demagnetization time increases with the Tb content.
