sd-Exchange electron spin resonance in a ferromagnetic metal

Abstract

The possibility of resonance absorption in the terahertz range caused by the sd exchange interaction at the incidence of an electromagnetic wave on a ferromagnetic metal has been predicted. The absorption coeffi cient has been calculated. It has been shown that the resonance frequency is determined by the magnetization of a ferromagnet and the absorption coefficient additionally depends on the orientation of the magnetization with respect to the plane of polarization of the wave.
