摘要: We report on a combined experimental and theoretical study of the spin-dependent relaxation processes in electron system an iron film Cu(100). Spin-, time-, energy- angle-resolved two-photon photoemission shows strong characteristic dependence lifetime photoexcited electrons their spin energy. Ab initio calculations as well many-body treatment corroborate that observed properties are determined by involving magnon emission. Thereby we demonstrate emission hot occurs femtosecond time scale thus provides significant source ultrafast spin-flip processes. Furthermore, engineering spectrum paves way for tuning dynamic magnetic materials.
