Ordinal Excitation of Three-Magnon and Four-Magnon Processes of Magnetostatic Surface Waves in YIG Films
نویسندگان
چکیده
Ordinal excitations of three-magnon decay, modulation instability and four-magnon decay processes of magnetostatic surface waves propagating in a pure yttrium iron garnet film are investigated in accordance with the relationship between the magnetostatic wave frequency and the internal magnetic field. Onset of the modulation instability is realized as a result of tnodification of n~agnetostatic surface wave dispersion characteristics by a metallic ground plane.

Magnons and acoustic phonons in Y3ÀxBixFe5O12
We use Brillouin light scattering ~BLS! to study a series of single-crystal Bi-doped yttrium iron garnet Y32xBixFe5O12 ~Bi-YIG! prepared with x5 0, 0.14, 0.36, 0.54, and 0.92. BLS shows that the optimal laser power should be as low as possible, <5 mW. BLS manifests the Bi-concentration dependence of the magnetic and mechanic properties of Bi-YIG. Two bulk magnons are observed. One is the therma...
متن کاملMicroscopic Theory of Dipole-Exchange Spin Waves in Ferromagnetic Films: Linear and Nonlinear Processes
The linear and nonlinear processes in ferromagnetic films at low temperatures (T ≪ Tc) are studied in a microscopic theory. Both the long-range magnetic dipole-dipole and the Heisenberg exchange interactions to nearest and next-nearest neighbors are included. The results obtained for the linearized spin-wave spectrum are compared with previous macroscopic theories. For ultrathin films (or for l...
متن کاملExcitation of magnon accumulation by laser clocking as a source of long- range spin waves in transparent magnetic films
Optical tools are of great promise for generation of spin waves due to the possibility to manipulate on ultrashort time scales and to provide local excitation. However, a single laser pulse can inject spin waves only with a broad frequency spectrum, resulting in a short propagation distance and low amplitude. Here we excite a magnetic garnet film by a train of fs-laser pulses with 1 GHz repetit...
متن کاملMicroscopic spin-wave theory for yttrium-iron garnet films
Motivated by recent experiments on thin films of the ferromagnetic insulator yttrium-iron garnet (YIG), we have developed an efficient microscopic approach to calculate the spin-wave spectra of these systems. We model the experimentally relevant magnon band of YIG using an effective quantum Heisenberg model on a cubic lattice with ferromagnetic nearest neighbour exchange and long-range dipole-d...
متن کاملNew Class of Surface Magnon Polaritons in Enantiomeric Antiferromagnetic Struc- Tures
A novel class of surface magnon polaritons supported in identical enantiomeric antiferromagnetic structures is presented. The surface waves arise due to bianisotropy. The existence of two distinct surface modes with unusual dispersion and polarization properties is predicted. The role of losses is investigated and the propagation length of the surface waves is determined.
