Abstract In this letter, magnetization reversal is investigated in (Ga,Mn)As thin films using the magneto-optical Kerr effect. A Stoner–Wohlfart model, modified to take into account the existence of magnetic reversal discontinuities associated with nucleation and propagation phenomena allows us to estimate most of the characteristic constants. These results demonstrate a reversal behavior analogous to that observed in metallic magnetic layers (coherent rotation followed by a nucleation propagation process). The dynamic study at T=20 K shows a strong increase of the coercivity with the increase of dH/dt. This effect is related to the random distribution of Mn magnetic ions in the lattice.
