Using density matrix equations of motion, we predict a femtosecond collective spin tilt triggered by nonlinear, near-ultraviolet (similar to 3 eV), coherent photoexcitation of (Ga, Mn) As ferromagnetic semiconductors with linearly polarized light. This dynamics results from carrier coherences and nonthermal populations excited in the {111} equivalent directions of the Brillouin zone and triggers a subsequent uniform precession. We predict nonthermal magnetization control by tuning the laser frequency and polarization direction. Our mechanism explains recent ultrafast pump-probe experiments.
