Abstract

The Elliott-Yafet (EY) mechanism is arguably the most promising candidate to explain the light-induced ultrafast demagnetization dynamics in ferromagnetic transition metals on time scales on the order of 100 fs. So far, only electron-phonon (or impurity) scattering has been analyzed as the scattering process needed to account for the demagnetization. We show that an EY-like mechanism based on electron-electron scattering has the potential to explain time-resolved magneto-optical Kerr effect measurements on thin magnetic Co and Ni films, without reference to a ``phononic spin bath.''

About these checks

Registry, retraction, Cites and statistics results are computed, not judged, with one exception: a printed reference that no index lists is read once by a model before it counts as a citation error. Claims are extracted by a model and kept only when their quote appears verbatim in the text; each cited source is then checked, with a model’s help, for whether it says what the claim relies on. Those verdicts can be wrong — read the claim’s quote and the cited source before relying on one.

Statistics and arithmetic are recomputed, not judged.

Confidence bands are shown only for fields calibrated on our annotated test set. None is calibrated yet, so no band is shown.
