High harmonics generation, driven by a femtosecond pulsed laser, has provided a unique insight into the spin dynamics in ferromagnetic multilayered samples, due to the development of ultrafast probing techniques that combine femtosecond time resolution with element selectivity. We patterned Fe/Ru/Ni layers into an array of equally spaced nanopillars. Following optical pump, we employed the resonant transversal magneto optical Kerr effect for tracing the response of Fe and Ni layers separately, to gain deeper comprehension of the interplay of optically induced demagnetization-magnetization processes.
