The effects of femtosecond laser excitation on the anisotropy parameter in orthoferrites ErFeO3 and DyFeO3 were probed through Faraday rotation induced by coherent spin precession, which was triggered by a terahertz pulse. Through the delayed frequency shift of the precession, gradual change in the anisotropic energy of the iron spins is evidenced. This is attributed to the slow energy transfer from the Fe3+ 3d electron system to the rare-earth 4f electron system, which in turn alters the anisotropy parameter of the Fe3+ spins. The result presented here reveals the time dependent spin alignment mechanism in cant-type antiferromagnetic orthoferrites and enables deeper understanding of spin orientation dynamics triggered by electronic excitation.
