Bose-Einstein condensation of magnons under incoherent pumping.

چکیده
Bose-Einstein condensation in a gas of magnons pumped by an incoherent pumping source is experimentally studied at room temperature. We demonstrate that the condensation can be achieved in a gas of bosons under conditions of incoherent pumping. The critical transition point is shown to be almost independent of the frequency spectrum of the pumping source and is solely determined by the density of magnons. The electromagnetic power radiated by the magnon condensate is found to scale quadratically with the pumping power. The obtained results are in a good agreement with the theory of Bose-Einstein condensation of quasiequilibrium magnons.

Re-distribution (condensation) of magnons in a ferromagnet under pumping
Last years several experiments were performed, which studied the Bose-Einstein condensation of quasi-particles, in particular, magnons in magnetically ordered systems. Recently the Bose-Einstein condensation of magnons was observed at room temperatures in a ferromagnetic film. The theory of the condensation (re-distribution) of magnons under the conditions of pumping, which explains many featur...
متن کاملObservation of spontaneous coherence in Bose-Einstein condensate of magnons.
The room-temperature dynamics of a magnon gas driven by short microwave pumping pulses is studied. An overpopulation of the lowest energy level of the system following the pumping is observed. Using the sensitivity of the Brillouin light scattering technique to the coherence degree of the scattering magnons we demonstrate the spontaneous emergence of coherence of the magnons at the lowest level...
متن کاملThermalization of a parametrically driven magnon gas leading to Bose-Einstein condensation.
The thermalization of parametrically pumped magnons caused by nonlinear multimagnon scattering processes and leading to the magnon Bose-Einstein condensation is investigated experimentally with high temporal resolution. The threshold pumping power necessary for the thermalization is determined. For pumping powers above this threshold the thermalization time has been found to decrease rapidly wi...
متن کاملBose-Einstein condensation of spin wave quanta at room temperature.
Spin waves are delocalized excitations of magnetic media that mainly determine their magnetic dynamics and thermodynamics at temperatures far below the critical one. The quantum-mechanical counterparts of spin waves are magnons, which can be considered as a gas of weakly interacting bosonic quasi-particles. Here, we discuss the room-temperature kinetics and thermodynamics of the magnon gas in y...
متن کاملSelf-trapping of magnon Bose-Einstein condensates in the ground state and on excited levels: from harmonic to box confinement.
Long-lived coherent spin precession of (3)He-B at low temperatures around 0.2T(c) is a manifestation of Bose-Einstein condensation of spin-wave excitations or magnons in a magnetic trap which is formed by the order-parameter texture and can be manipulated experimentally. When the number of magnons increases, the orbital texture reorients under the influence of the spin-orbit interaction and the...
