In this study, we employ the time-resolved optical pump-terahertz probe (OPTP) spectroscopy based on a femtosecond laser system with a central wavelength of 800 nm, pulse duration of 120 fs, and repetition rate of 1 kHz to systematically explore the ultrafast terahertz photoconductive characteristics and terahertz emission properties of topological ferromagnetic Heusler semimetal Co
2MnAl thin films, with conventional ferromagnetic Fe thin films as a reference sample. By introducing magnetic field modulation to fully separate terahertz emission signals from pump-induced transmission signals, and quantitatively analyzing the transient photoconductivity dynamics using the Tinkham thin-film approximation model, we directly observe a distinct photoexcited carrier-driven positive-negative photoconductivity conversion behavior in Co
2MnAl thin films under femtosecond laser excitation. In sharp comparison, Fe thin films only display negative photoconductivity governed by electron-electron scattering, and its relaxation processes show negligible dependence on pump laser fluence. Originating from the characteristic spin-resolved metallic/semiconducting dual band structure in Co
2MnAl, the initial positive photoconductivity within sub-picoseconds is ascribed to the increased population of photogenerated carriers in the minority-spin semiconducting channel, whereas the subsequent ultrafast switching to negative photoconductivity arises from the formation of dynamic polarons that drastically suppress carrier mobility. Furthermore, the photoconductivity peak magnitude of Co
2MnAl can be flexibly modulated by varying pump fluence. The peak-to-peak amplitudes of terahertz emission from both Co
2MnAl and Fe thin films exhibit a linear increase with increasing pump fluence, indicating a similar optical excitation mechanism dominated by magnetic dipole and anomalous Hall effects. This work not only clarifies the intrinsic ultrafast photophysical mechanisms and spin-dependent carrier dynamics in Co
2MnAl thin films, but also realizes the spectroscopic discrimination of majority-spin and minority-spin carrier behaviors, which provides critical experimental evidence and physical insights for optimizing the terahertz radiation performance of cobalt-based Heusler alloys and designing high-performance ultrafast spintronic and terahertz optoelectronic devices.
