Controlling the magnetization of materials with light pulses - The study of Heusler...
When a magnetic material is shined on with a laser pulse, it will locally demagnetize. This magnetization loss occurs in an ultra-fast timescale, here less than a picosecond (10-12 s). In some exceptional cases, the material can even undergo a global magnetization reversal. In addition to the theoretical importance of this phenomenon, this new "all-optical" control of the magnetization...
