Thermal modulation of magnetism in magnetic recording media is a novel technique to increase the recording density.L10-FePt is a promising material for the media; however, experimental observation of its magnetization dynamics characterized by the Gilbert damping constantαis technically difficult because the dynamics is in the terahertz (THz) frequency range. A cutting edge technique in THz spintronics, an all-optical pump–probe method, leads us to achieve the detection of THz magnetization dynamics in nanometer-scale thin films with thermal heating. Here, thermal modulation of the magnetization dynamics forL10-FePt nanogranular and continuous films is discussed using the all-optical method. The effective damping constant for the nanogranular film decreased from 0.18 to 0.064 with increasing the temperature, and the thermal modulation decreased the extrinsic contribution, while this increasedαabove 530 K. This observation regarding the thermal modulation of the magnetic damping is valuable to design future high-density magnetic recording media.
