Popis: Manipulation of the intersublattice interaction strengh (JRE-TM) in rare earth (RE)-transition metal (TM) alloys is a key issue to understand how efficiently the laser-induced angular momentum transfers from 3d to 4f spins and to have a better control of the ultrafast spin dynamics. In this work, the relationships between laser-induced demagnetization process and the intersublattice 3d-4f interaction for the GdCoFe alloys were systematically studied. The ultrafast two-stage demagnetization process could change into a one-stage mode as the angular momentum transferring channel between 3d and 4f spins is switched off, which could be modulated by JRE-TM. Furthermore, both the effective g-factor and damping constant deduced by the subsequently laser-induced magnetization precession process diverge at the angular momentum compensation point based on the ferromagnetic resonance method with the LLG equations. The results provide an alternative way to efficiently manipulate the ultrafast demagnetization time for practical applications.
