We present pump-probe measurements on the single-molecule magnet Fe_8 with microwave pulses having a length of several nanoseconds. The microwave radiation in the experiments is located in the frequency range between 104 GHz and 118 GHz.…
We present measurements on the single molecule magnet Fe8 in the presence of pulsed microwave radiation at 118 GHz. The spin dynamics is studied via time resolved magnetization experiments using a Hall probe magnetometer. We investigate the…
We describe an experiment aimed at measuring the spin dynamics of the Fe8 single-molecule magnet in the presence of pulsed microwave radiation. In earlier work, heating was observed after a 0.2-ms pulse of intense radiation, indicating that…
We measure magnetization changes in a single crystal of the single-molecule magnet Fe8 when exposed to intense, short (<20 $\mu$s) pulses of microwave radiation resonant with the m = 10 to 9 transition. We find that radiation induces a…
Presented are magnetization measurements on a crystal of Fe8 single-molecule magnets using a Hall probe magnetometer. Irradiation with microwaves at frequencies of 92 and 110-120 GHz leads to the observation of electron paramagnetic…
Spin relaxation between the two lowest-lying spin-states has been studied in the S=4 single molecule magnet Ni$_4$ under steady state conditions of low amplitude and continuous microwave irradiation. The relaxation rate was determined as a…
In femtosecond demagnetization experiments, one gains access to the elementary relaxation mechanisms of a magnetically ordered spin system on a time scale of 100 fs. Following these experiments, we report a combined micromagnetic and…
Microwave radiation applied to single-molecule magnets can induce large magnetization changes when the radiation is resonant with transitions between spin levels. These changes are interpreted as due to resonant heating of the sample by the…
Resonant microwave radiation applied to a single crystal of the molecular magnet Fe_8 induces dramatic changes in the sample's magnetization. Transitions between excited states are found even though at the nominal system temperature these…
We present a two-current-pulse temporal correlation experiment to study the intrinsic subnanosecond nonequilibrium magnetic dynamics of a nanomagnet during and following a pulse excitation. This method is applied to a model spin-transfer…
We develop an extended pump-probe Faraday rotation technique to study the submicrosecond electron spin dynamics with picosecond time resolution in a wide range of magnetic fields. The electron spin dephasing time $T_2^*$ and the…
Integrated magnetic sensors that allow simultaneous EPR and magnetization measurements have been developed to study single molecule magnets. A high frequency microstrip resonator has been integrated with a micro-Hall effect magnetometer.…
We use millimeter wave radiation to manipulate the populations of the energy levels of a single crystal molecular magnet Fe8. When a continuous wave radiation is in resonance with the transitions from the ground state to the first excited…
Magnetic resonance with ensembles of electron spins is nowadays performed in frequency ranges up to 240 GHz and in corresponding magnetic fields of up to 10 T. However, experiments with single electron and nuclear spins so far only reach…
Superconducting magnets enable precise control of nuclear and electron spins, and are used in experiments that explore biological and condensed matter systems, and fundamental atomic particles. In high-precision applications, a common view…
We present time-resolved scanning x-ray microscopy measurements with picosecond photo-excitation via a tailored infrared pump laser at a scanning transmission x-ray microscope. Specifically, we image the laser-induced demagnetization and…
We report on measurements of the spin relaxation time T1 of individual electron spins in the few electron regime of a Si/SiO2-based quantum dot (QD). Energy-spectroscopy of the QD has been performed using a charge sensing technique. The…
Development of energy efficient techniques for generation of spin waves (magnons) is important for implementation of low-dissipation spin-wave-based logic circuits and memory elements. A promising approach to achieve this goal is based on…
We have used optically excited ultrashort electrical pulses to measure the magnetoplasmon resonance of a two-dimensional electron gas formed in an AlGaAs/GaAs heterostructure at frequencies up to 200 gigahertz. This is accomplished by…
Tunneling between the two lowest energy levels of single molecule magnets with Ising type anisotropy, accompanied by the emission or absorption of phonons, is considered. Quantitatively accurate calculations of the rates for such tunneling…
