The magnetization dynamics for ferrimagnets at the angular momentum compensation temperature T_A is believed to be analogous to that for antiferromagnets. We investigated the pulsed-laser-induced magnetization dynamics in amorphous rare-earth transition-metal ferrimagnet films with a T_A just above room temperature. For a low pulse fluence, the magnetization precession frequency decreases as the applied magnetic field increases, whereas for a higher pulse fluence, it increases as the applied field increases. The result was well explained by the left-handed and right-handed precession modes of the antiferromagnetic-like resonance at temperatures below and above T_A, respectively, and the data were in agreement with the theoretical simulation. The study demonstrated the experimental route to achieving antiferromagnetic resonance in ferrimagnets using a pulsed laser.

Synthetic ferrimagnets are composite magnetic structures formed from two or more anti- ferromagnetically coupled magnetic sublattices with different magnetic moments. Here we report on atomistic spin simulations of the laser-induced magnetization dyn
amics on such synthetic ferrimag- nets, and demonstrate that the application of ultrashort laser pulses leads to sub-picoscond magnetization dynamics and all-optical switching in a similar manner as in ferrimagnetic alloys. Moreover, we present the essential material properties for successful laser-induced switching, demonstrating the feasibility of using a synthetic ferrimagnet as a high density magnetic storage element without the need of a write field.
Antiferromagnetic spintronics is an emerging research field which aims to utilize antiferromagnets as core elements in spintronic devices. A central motivation toward this direction is that antiferromagnetic spin dynamics is expected to be much faste
r than ferromagnetic counterpart because antiferromagnets have higher resonance frequencies than ferromagnets. Recent theories indeed predicted faster dynamics of antiferromagnetic domain walls (DWs) than ferromagnetic DWs. However, experimental investigations of antiferromagnetic spin dynamics have remained unexplored mainly because of the immunity of antiferromagnets to magnetic fields. Furthermore, this immunity makes field-driven antiferromagnetic DW motion impossible despite rich physics of field-driven DW dynamics as proven in ferromagnetic DW studies. Here we show that fast field-driven antiferromagnetic spin dynamics is realized in ferrimagnets at the angular momentum compensation point TA. Using rare-earth 3d-transition metal ferrimagnetic compounds where net magnetic moment is nonzero at TA, the field-driven DW mobility remarkably enhances up to 20 km/sT. The collective coordinate approach generalized for ferrimagnets and atomistic spin model simulations show that this remarkable enhancement is a consequence of antiferromagnetic spin dynamics at TA. Our finding allows us to investigate the physics of antiferromagnetic spin dynamics and highlights the importance of tuning of the angular momentum compensation point of ferrimagnets, which could be a key towards ferrimagnetic spintronics.
While current-induced spin-orbit torques (SOTs) have been extensively studied in ferromagnets and antiferromagnets, ferrimagnets have been less studied. Here we report the presence of enhanced spin-orbit torques resulting from negative exchange inter
action in ferrimagnets. The effective field and switching efficiency increase substantially as CoGd approaches its compensation point, giving rise to 9 times larger spin-orbit torques compared to that of non-compensated one. The macrospin modelling results also support efficient spin-orbit torques in a ferrimagnet. Our results suggest that ferrimagnets near compensation can be a new route for spin-orbit torque applications due to their high thermal stability and easy current-induced switching assisted by negative exchange interaction.
After the application of an ultrashort laser pulse, the antiferromagnetic alignment in rare earth-transition metal alloys can temporarily become ferromagnetic with the rare-earth polarity. Proposed models merely describe this effect, without showin
g the route for its manipulation. Here we use extensive atomistic spin model simulations and micromagnetic theory for ferrimagnets at elevated temperatures to predict that the polarity of this transient ferromagnetic-like state can be controlled by initial temperature. We show that this arises because the magnetic response of each lattice has a different temperature dependence, at low temperatures the transition metal responds faster than the rare earth, while at high temperatures this role is interchanged. Our findings contribute to the physical understanding and control of this state and thus open new perspectives for its use in ultrafast magnetic devices.
Recent studies have reported the existence of an epitaxially-stabilized tetragonal-like (T-like) monoclinic phase in BiFeO3 thin-films with high levels of compressive strain. While their structural and ferroelectric properties are different than thos
e of rhombohedral-like (R-like) films with lower levels of strain, little information exists on magnetic properties. Here, we report a detailed neutron scattering study of a nearly phase-pure film of T-like BiFeO3. By tracking the temperature dependence and relative intensity of several superstructure peaks in the reciprocal lattice cell, we confirm antiferromagnetism with largely G-type character and TN = 324 K, significantly below a structural phase transition at 375 K, contrary to previous reports. Evidence for a second transition, possibly a minority magnetic phase with C-type character is also reported with TN = 260 K. The co-existence of the two magnetic phases in T-like BiFeO3 and the difference in ordering temperatures between R-like and T-like systems is explained through simple Fe-O-Fe bond distance considerations.
