Excitation of coupled spin–orbit dynamics in cobalt oxide by femtosecond laser pulses
Light pulses can control magnetism in a material, and the effective creation of magnetic oscillations leads to spintronic devices with higher efficiency. Here, the authors increase the efficiency of magnon excitation by using a material in which orbital angular momenta are not quenched.
