Sg. Rudov et al., PHOTOINDUCED, POLARIZATION-DEPENDENT CHANGES OF MAGNETIC-ANISOTROPY IN CO, GE, CA DOPED YIG-FILMS, IEEE transactions on magnetics, 30(2), 1994, pp. 791-793
The photoinduced changes of the magnetization vector orientation under
the optical linearly polarized irradiation (lambda = 0.53 mum and lam
bda = 1.06 mum) were observed in ferromagnetic films (YCa)3(FeCoGe)5O1
2. The effect is a result of the occurence of the photoinduced anisotr
opy. The phenomenologic description based only on general symmetry con
sideration is suggested.
