Abstract

Magnetization dynamics on a femtosecond timescale has been observed for a huge variety of magnetic structures. However, the influence of different excitation photon energies has not been studied in detail yet. In our time-resolved magneto-optical Kerr effect setup we excite a Nickel bulk system with 1.55 and 3.1 eV, respectively, leading to different remagnetization dynamics depending on the chosen photon energy. Furthermore we complement our experimental data with a theoretical approach applying appropriate Boltzmann collision integrals including the density of states of Nickel. The comparison between the experimental data and the theoretical approach indicates that photon-energy dependent transport processes play a major role in this setup.
