Fig. 4: Magnetic properties of laser-annealed vs. unprocessed Metglas.

a Hysteresis loop of Metglas under a high magnetic field. b Hysteresis loop under a low magnetic field. c Untreated Metglas: Kerr effect-induced magnetic domain flipping process. d Treated Metglas: Backside magnetic domain flipping via Kerr effect. e Untreated Metglas Lorentz lens: Initial magnetic wall state under zero field. f Untreated Metglas Lorentz lens: pre-saturation magnetic wall motion. g Treated-Metglas Lorentz lens: Initial magnetic wall state under zero field. h Treated-Metglas Lorentz lens: pre-saturation magnetic wall motion
