The remagnetization process after ultrafast demagnetization can be described by relaxation mechanisms between the spin, electron, and lattice reservoirs. The angular momentum transfer between them is the subject of current research, especially the role of collective spin excitations remains comparably unexplored. In our work, we study the pump fluence-dependent excitation of coherent spin waves in thin nickel films. Using the all-optical, time-resolved magneto-optical Kerr-effect (tr-MOKE) technique, we investigate the role of coherent spin waves after the laser-induced demagnetization. We show that the largest spin-wave amplitude is observed close to the fully demagnetized state. Furthermore, the coherence of the system appears to be conserved during de- and remagnetization, even when the magnetization is quenched by up to 90%. Interestingly, the phase of the coherent oscillations relative to the initial laser pulse is strongly dependent on the laser fluence which indicates that the coherent precession is influenced by the demagnetization itself. This research was supported by the DFG through No. TRR 173-268565370 (project B11).
