Popis: We report dynamic control of magnetization precession by light alone. A ferromagnetic (Ga,Mn)As epilayer was used for experiments. Amplitude of precession was modulated to a large extent by tuning the time interval between two successive optical pump pulses which induced torques on magnetization through a non-thermal process. Nonlinear effect in precession motion was also discussed.
