Ultrafast Lorentz microscopy with magnetic field excitation at microwave frequencies — Jonathan Tilman Weber, Nikita Porwal, •Andreas Wendeln, Michael Winklhofer, and Sascha Schäfer — Carl von Ossietzky Universität, Oldenburg, Deutschland

Recent progress in the development of laser-driven, high brightness photocathodes offers a path to investigate magnetization dynamics with high spatial and temporal resolution, utilizing a Lorentz imaging approach in ultrafast transmission electron microscopy (UTEM) [1]. In particular, non-optical excitation schemes, such as current or field excitation provide pathways for a selective triggering of magnetic dynamics. Extending the available frequencies in such experiments [2], we developed a TEM sample holder based on a two-dimensional microwave cavity, with which we can excite ferromagnetic resonances in magnetic nanostructures. The microwave excitation signals are phase-locked to the nanolocalized photoemission of ultrashort electron pulses from a Schottky field emitter, using high harmonics of the amplified laser system as a master clock for their synthetization [3]. With this advanced excitation and measurement scheme we aim to image ferromagnetic resonance modes with high spatial and temporal resolution and to further establish ultrafast Lorentz microscopy as a powerful tool to characterize magnetization dynamics on the nanoscale.
