Spin waves (SWs) are precessional magnetization disturbances propagating in magnetic media in the form of waves at microwave frequencies [1] that are the most commonly used frequencies range for wireless communication. Wavelengths of SWs are several orders of magnitude shorter than the lengths of electromagnetic waves of corresponding frequencies. The dynamics of SWs even in uniformly magnetized films is extraordinarily rich. It is easy to obtain effects difficult to be achived for other type of waves, such as nonreciprocity, excitation caustic-beam that are characteristic for hyperbolic media, easy external control over propagation (e.g., by inhomogeneous magnetic field) [2]. Non-linear phenomena are also easily available[1,3]. All these make SWs to be a promising candidate for information carriers, especially in the context of beyond-CMOS applications [4].&lt;br/&gt;&lt;br/&gt;SWs may be confined to certain areas of the thin film, e.g., in a potential well created by an inhomogeneity of the static demagnetizing field in the vicinity of film’s edge. Such localized modes are called edge SWs (E-SWs). Usually, the frequencies of E-SWs are downshifted with respect to bulk-type SWs (B-SWs), i.e., SWs propagating far from the edge where the static effective field is practically homogenous.&lt;br/&gt;Here, we theoretically study by means of micromagnetic simulations [5] and analytical modelling the dynamics of the E-SWs localized at the edge of thin permalloy film and their interaction with B-SWs. Firstly, we focus on the utilization of the E-SWs to excite short B-SWs propagating in the form of plane waves. Secondly, we study the inelastic non-linear scattering of B-SW beam by the E-SWs.&lt;br/&gt;&lt;br/&gt;We consider propagation of the E-SW along the edge of 10 nm thick permalloy film that is uniformly magnetized by the external field of value 300 mT directed perpendicularly to the film’s edge (see Fig. 1a, where the system is presented along with exemplary result of a simulation). The E-SW is excited by the point-source-like microwave field of frequency 12 GHz located at the film’s edge. There are visible two prominent peaks in the simulated spectrum (Fig. 1b). The first one corresponds to the frequency of the microwave field (12 GHz) and propagation of the E-SWs, whereas the second peak has doubled frequency (24 GHz) and corresponds to the B-SWs propagating obliquely outwards the edge in the form of plane waves. It indicates excitation of the B-SWs by the propagating E-SWs in the process of second harmonic generation. Noteworthy, the wavelength of the B-SWs is over twice shorter than the wavelength of the E-SWs shown in Fig. 1a. The B-SW of wavelength equal to 78 nm is excited by the 285 nm long E-SW.&lt;br/&gt;&lt;br/&gt;For the same sample, we analytically and numerically analyze the interaction of an obliquely incident B-SW beam (at frequency &lt;i&gt;f&lt;/i&gt;) with an E-SWs at frequency &lt;i&gt;n&lt;/i&gt;. We find that due to the inelastic scattering the secondary B-SW beams with up- and down-shifted frequency (&lt;i&gt;f-&lt;/i&gt;&lt;i&gt;n&lt;/i&gt;&lt;i&gt;, f+&lt;/i&gt;&lt;i&gt;n&lt;/i&gt;) can be excited. In Fig. 2 an exemplary result of simulation for a B-SW beam incident at the films edge where E-SW propagates and the resulting secondary scattered beam with frequency (&lt;i&gt;f+ν)&lt;/i&gt;=42 GHz are shown. Moreover, we observe angular shifts between the primary incident and the scattered beams with shifted frequencies and analyze the efficiency of the scattering process. Finally, we present an application of this effect for SW demultiplexing.&lt;br/&gt;&lt;br/&gt;&lt;i&gt;Acknowledgments&lt;/i&gt;.

Field demagnetization protocols may be employed to bring athermal, artificial spin systems into an arrested, low-energy magnetic configuration. Such protocols, applied to systems in which thermal fluctuations are absent, are intrinsically deterministic: if the field history and the sample properties were known, the final configuration would be completely determined. Here, we study the response of a given athermal, artificial square ice submitted to successive, albeit similar, field demagnetization protocols. We show that each resulting arrested state differs from the previous one. Analyzing these magnetic states, we demonstrate that our artificial ice magnet behaves as a stochastic system. We propose a mechanism by which stochasticity can be induced.

 Are field demagnetized, athermal, artificial square ice magnets stochastic systems?

The concept of spin current, introduced analogously to the charge current, has gained a great significance in spintronic and magnonic systems. Two distinct types of spin transport mechanisms can be identified. The first one is associated with diffusion of spin-polarized conduction electrons from one part of the system to another, followed by their spin relaxation mainly due to the exchange interaction with the localized electrons. The second mechanism is mediated by the transfer of spin between localized magnetic moments due to their mutual interaction. The latter can be also described as spin transport by propagating spin waves. Interplay between these two phenomena enables generation of propagating spin waves by spin currents carried by conduction electrons. Reciprocally, spin waves can produce spin currents carried by spin-polarized electrons, which is known as spin pumping. In my talk I will discuss several phenomena involving interplay between spin waves and electron spin currents, including the excitation of propagating spin waves by spin polarized electric current [1] and the spin-Hall effect (SHE) [2]. In the first case a simplified model considering only the exchange interaction provides an adequate description of the observed phenomena, based on the conservation of angular momentum in the spin subsystem. However, the physical origin of SHE is the relativistic spin-orbit coupling, which mixes the angular momentum of spin subsystem with that of the lattice. Surprisingly, the same is valid for the magnetic dipole interaction. I will illustrate the importance of mixing between spin and orbital degrees of freedom with the examples of spin-wave pumping experiments [3] and the dynamics of Bose-Einstein condensate of magnons [4].

 Spin waves and spin currents

Magnons in an easy-axis antiferromagnet with uniaxial anisotropy have two circularly polarized modes, which, very similar to the spin states of electrons, carry opposite angular momentum. Spin transport mediated by these antiferromagnetic magnons has attracted much attention recently. In this talk, we will discuss explicitly the role of different microscopic mechanisms behind. Specifically, we will show that the exchange interaction can lead to strong mode splitting and confluence processes, which change the magnon number but conserve the total angular momentum. Such processes can drive the two oppositely polarized magnon species to opposite chemical potentials, resulting in a pure magnon spin current, i.e., a counterflow of the two species without net magnon current [1]. The dipole-dipole interaction, on the other hand, is demonstrated to be able to introduce an effective magnon spin-orbit coupling, which then gives rise to electron-like spin-orbit phenomena, such as an intrinsic magnon spin Hall effect and D’yakonov-Perel’-type magnon spin relaxation [2]. Moreover, we show that the dipole-dipole interaction is able to generate Damon-Eshbach-type magnon surface modes [3]. In contrast to the nonreciprocity of the conventional Damon-Eshbach mode in ferromagnets, the surface modes in antiferromagnets experience a spin-momentum locking, just like the surface modes in an electronic topological insulator. Our work suggests that the antiferromagnetic insulators could be a suitable platform for exploring eletron-like spin dynamics in insulators and designing novel spintronic devices.

 Pure spin current and spin Hall effect in antiferromagnetic insulators

Recent progresses in quantum information technologies have demonstrated the benefits of leveraging coherence effects such as collective spin precession in ferromagnets in order to process information more efficiently. This coherent transfer between different waveforms is an important ingredient of the quantum information processing as it allows transport of quantum states without loss of frequency or phase. An efficient hybridization process requires to reach a strong coupling regime, where the interaction rate between two collective states becomes larger than their relaxation rates. While increasing the overlap integral between two spatio-temporal patterns is primarily a design issue, diminishing the internal friction inside an object is a much more complex task, which requires know-how in material research and growth technology. In spintronics, this has revived interest for insulating materials and in particular garnets, which are the magnetic materials benefiting from the lowest magnetic damping. The sound wave attenuation coefficient in garnets is also exceptional, i.e. up to an order of magnitude lower than that in single crystalline quartz. In addition to the low damping of magnetic and sound waves, a strong coupling can be established between spin-waves (magnons) and lattice vibrations (phonons) through the magnetic anisotropy and strain dependence of the magnetocrystalline energy in magnetic garnets. The magnetoelasticity leads to new hybrid quasiparticles (“magnon polarons”) when spin wave and acoustic wave dispersions cross [1]. This coupling has been exploited in the past to produce microwave acoustic transducers [2]. The adiabatic conversion between magnons and phonons in magnetic field gradients proves their strong coupling in yttrium iron garnet (YIG) [3]. Here we first demonstrate that the spin waves can be strongly coupled to coherent transverse sound waves that have very long characteristic decay length and propagate ballistically over millimetric distances. The experiment was performed at room temperature with a magnetic field applied perpendicular to the film. Our sample consists of two 200 nm thick YIG layers deposited on both sides of a 0.5 mm thick gadolinium gallium garnet (GGG) substrate. The circularly polarized standing sound waves couple to the magnetization oscillations in both layers. An interference pattern is observed and it is explained as the strong coupling of the magnetization dynamics of the two YIG layers either in phase or out of phase by the standing transverse sound waves [4]. This long range coherent transport of spin by phononic angular momentum can add new functionalities to insulator spintronic circuits and devices. Furthermore, such mediation of coherent spins could induce a novel dynamic exchange coupling in a spin-valve system when the magnetic resonances of two layers are brought within the strength of the magnetoelastic coupling. To detect such coupling, a Pt strip electrode was deposited on one YIG layer to monitor its dynamics through the inverse spin Hall effect (ISHE). This improves the measurement sensitivity of the phonon mediated spin transfer. In our sample, the two YIG layers have initially different spontaneous magnetizations. We tune the difference between two magnetic resonances either i) by varying the polar angle of an external magnetic field or ii) by applying a temperature gradient along the stack direction. The existence of the novel dynamic coupling is evidenced by an emergence of the “bright” and “dark” collective states in both measurements. Our observation of such collective modes resembles the level attraction/repulsion behavior between two hybridized modes [5]. This feature is similar to the coupling control via microwave phase [6]. We show that the observed behavior is in agreement with theoretical predictions. Finally we discuss the detection of heat carried by coherent phonons. We measure thermal voltages across Pt in YIG|GGG|Pt system, where no ISHE voltage should be present. The signal appears only at the acoustic phonon resonances indicating that the heat can be efficiently carried by circularly polarized coherent phonons excited by magnons. When the magnetic field direction is tilted away from the film normal direction, the signal vanishes, suggesting that the heat carried by acoustic phonons becomes less coherent. We perform several control experiments, which shows the universality of the signal and possible enhancement schemes.

 Long range coupling of magnetic bilayers by coherent phonons

The most important parameters of complementary CMOS electronics, such as high speed information processing, small size of transistors, rather small energy consumption and low thermal radiation have fundamental restrictions. Magnonics - is one of the alternative conteptual solutions to overcome these restrictions [1-3]. Basically, the main idea of this is to combine magnonics with conventional CMOS technologies [4,5]. Interaction of magnons (spin waves) in micron- or nanosized ferromagnetic films with transport of electrons in semiconductors adjacent to these films permits to develop novel component base of the microwave or THz nanolectronics with unique characteristics. The most suitable materials for combination in spintonics (magnonics) and electronics beyond CMOS are yttrium-iron-garnet (YIG) and Si. YIG possess very low damping for spin waves propagation. Si has very high mobility of current carriers and wide band gap. Novel technologies in YIG - semiconductor materials in which Si and GaAs are used as substrates for YIG films show possibilities for their integration in beyond CMOS electronics [6]. In this work we study spin waves propagation in a heterostructure consisting of corrugated YIG film grown on gallium-gadolinium-garnet (GGG) substrate attached to Si wafer. By using electric and magnetic control of wave propagation we are able to study linear and nonlinear effects accompanying spin waves propagation. Fig. 1 shows the layout of the investigated structure. The heterostructure was made on the base of YIG film with a thickness of =10 μm and saturation magnetization G grown on GGG substrate. On the surface of the YIG film, the periodic structure was created with the period L =200 μm in the form of grooves with the depth of 1 μm and the width of 100 μm (1D magnonic crystal (MC). To form an MC/SC (semiconductor) type structure on the MC surface, the n-type doped silicon semiconductor wafer (with electrons carrier density N = 3 011 cm-3 and conductivity = 10 10-5 Ohm-1 m-1) was placed. The thickness of SC layer = 500 μm, the length 3 mm, and the width is equal the width of MC =4 mm. Copper contacts with chromium adhesive layer were deposited on the SC surface at the distance 2.5 mm relative to each other. When a control voltage U is applied to the contacts, a directional drift of charges in the SC (EC) takes place. For the excitation and receiving of the magnetostatic spin wave, 30 μm-wide microstrip transducers were used. The transducers were placed on the MC surface at a distance of 9.5 mm relative to each other. An external constant magnetic field was applied parallel to the microstrip transducers, and the magnetostatic surface waves (MSSW) was excited in the MC. In Fig. 2 the amplitude-frequency characteristic (AFC) curves for surface spin waves in MC/SC structure are shown at the input power P0 = 23 dBm and various voltages applied to SC. The strongly pronounced minima in AFC curves respect to frequency band gaps of magnonic crystals (Bragg frequencies): at the absence of the voltage (at U=0 V the central frequency of band gap (BG) - fnl=4.11 GHz), at the applied voltage U=20 V the central frequency of band gap - =4.08 GHz. At the voltage increase the BG central frequency moves to lower values. In Fig. 2 the band gap central frequency is marked fl=4.12 GHz for linear case (P0 = 11 dBm) at U=0 V. It can be seen that for fl&gt;fnl, thus at the increase of the input power the band gap in nonlinearly shifted. We also considered the features of spin wave pulses propagation through the MC/SC structure depending on the electric voltage variation. The nonlinear shift of the band gap permits to form conditions for band gap solitons. We developed the adequate nonlinear theory for such wave propagation. The theoretical results are obtained using the coupled waves method for forward wave and wave reflected from the spatial non-uniformities of periodic structure. The microwave method for measuring amplitude versus frequency data of propagating spin waves was applied. The parameters of these solitons further can be governed by the double electric asnd magnetic control. In particular, the exciting number of solitons, their threshold appearance and propagation velocity can be controlled by the electric current applied to the semiconductor. We have further discovered the effect of the nonlinear switching at which the YIG film with periodic structure can transmit the wave signal through it at the frequencies of the band gap due to high power signal wave. In this case the heterostructure demonstrates the bistability properties and hysteresis appearance at the wave power increase. The obtained results permit to consider heterostructures based on magnonic crystals and semiconductor layers as the possible candidates for integration of magnonics component base into semiconductor electronics architecture.

 Spin Waves in YIG-Semiconductor Heterostructures

The advent of materials with complex, topologically-stabilized magnetic textures, such as skyrmions, stemming from careful tuning of the Dzyaloshinskii–Moriya interaction, direct light-induced manipulation of spins, or geometric frustration [1], has opened up exciting avenues of research. Understanding the structure and dynamics of, and achieving control over, spin on the scale of the magnetic exchange interaction is both a question of fundamental physics and at the forefront of developing quantum technologies like spintronics and low-energy data transport and memory [2]. Because of the small size of these intricate nanoscale magnetic textures, few to hundreds of nm, and their low contrast, it is quite challenging to image them in 3D directly without prior knowledge of the sample or extensive simulation. They dynamics of such systems can also prove challenging to capture, as some magnetic processes occur on the timescale of twenty femtoseconds or less [3]. To fully understand the static and dynamic electronic, magnetic, and structural properties of complex samples we combine complementary nanoscale imaging and spectroscopy techniques: resonant x-ray magnetic circular dichroism (MCD) provides element-specific magnetic sensitivity; ptychography yields diffraction-limited images with phase contrast, ideal for low-contrast materials; and time-resolved extreme ultraviolet (EUV) spectroscopies can capture atto-to-nanosecond dynamics. By integrating soft x-ray MCD imaging with scalar ptycho-tomography [4, 5] we demonstrate a technique capable of directly imaging the 3D magnetic field within a Ni metalattice material, with no need for prior knowledge or simulation, that is applicable to a wide range of magnetic nanostructured samples.

 3D imaging of topologically stabilized spin textures in nanostructured materials – towards ultrafast imaging of spin transport

Antiferromagnets (AFMs) emerged as a versatile material science platform, which enabled numerous fundamental discoveries including the observation of monopole quasiparticles in frustrated systems and collective quantum effects, such as spin superfluidity and Bose–Einstein condensation of magnetic excitations [1]. Primary advantages of antiferromagnets are their terahertz operating frequencies, the absence of stray fields, magnetic field robustness, all of which result in numerous advantages including those in spintronics and spinorbitronics [2]. The key enabler of those applications is the presence of the Dzyaloshinskii-Moriya interaction (DMI). This, in turn, put stringent requirements on the magnetic symmetry of AFM, which should support weak ferromagnetism and chiral helimagnetism. This makes the portfolio of material systems available for these studies very limited that renders the progress in AFM-related fundamental and technological research to depend on time-consuming material screening and optimization of intrinsic chiral properties of AFMs. The field of curvilinear magnetism is well explored for ferromagnets, where magnetic responses are tailored by local curvatures [3]. By contrast, the topic of curvilinear AFMs is at its infancy [4-9]. The energy landscape of ring AFM and geometrically frustrated chains at non-zero temperature is characterized by a large number of metastable states including long-living noncollinear textures if anisotropy is strong enough [6]. In experiment, curvilinear AFMs are mainly represented by the molecular magnets [7] and metalized DNA molecules [8]. The shape anisotropy stemming from magnetostriction plays the major role in the ordering of the Neel vector in perovskite zig-zag stripes and nanodots determining the easy direction as the parallel or perpendicular to the boundary [9]. In this presentation, we will demonstrate that chiral responses of AFMs can be tailored by a geometrical curvature without the need to adjust material parameters. In a general case, an intrinsically achiral one-dimensional curvilinear AFM spin chain behaves as a chiral helimagnet with geometrically tunable DMI, orientation of the Neel vector and the helimagnetic phase transition, see Fig. 1 [4]. The helix-shaped spin chain possesses two ground states: the so-called homogeneous and periodic ones with respect to the motion along the chain. The energetically favorable state is determined by the direction of the geometry-driven DMI vector. In contrast to ferromagnets, there is no easy axis anisotropy competing with the geometry-driven one. Furthermore, the curvature-induced DMI results in the hybridization of spin wave modes. The low-frequency branch is gapless for straight chains and possesses the gap for any finite curvature. In addition, the DMI enables a geometrically-driven local minimum of the low frequency branch which increases for larger curvature and torsion, see Fig. 2. This opens exciting perspectives to study long-lived collective magnon states in AFMs. These findings position curvilinear 1D antiferromagnets as a novel platform for the realization of geometrically tunable chiral antiferromagnets for antiferromagnetic spinorbitronics and fundamental discoveries in the formation of coherent magnon condensates in the momentum space. The proposed description of vector fields living at curvilinear geometries can be applied for other systems with complex order parameters, such as ferroelectrics [10] or liquid crystals [11].

 Curvilinear antiferromagnetism: Current state and perspectives INVITED

One current goal of spintronics is the development of a sustainable information technology based on the transport of pure spin currents. One promising way to do this is to use spin waves (SWs), the elementary excitations of magnetically ordered materials: by collective precession of magnetic moments, they can transport angular momentum. SW information processing also offers interesting alternatives to conventional microelectronics [1]. For this, yttrium iron garnet (YIG), an insulating ferrimagnet, is the ideal material because it has the lowest magnetic damping. Furthermore, thanks to the spin orbit torque (SOT), it is possible to control the relaxation time of SWs in YIG by an electric current injected into an adjacent platinum layer [2]. However, such metal/insulator hybrid devices presently have certain limitations, as a sudden drop in the amplitude of the main mode beyond a certain excitation threshold, which originates from nonlinear coupling with other SW modes [2]. Different strategies can be considered to overcome these issues. In nanopatterned samples the available SW modes become quantized, which severely limits the available nonlinear processes. As a result, nonlinear saturation thresholds are postponed, which allows to reach much higher amplitudes of single mode dynamics [3]. The perpendicular magnetic anisotropy (PMA) can also be used to control the sign of the nonlinear frequency shift. Recently, the growth of ultra-thin films of Bismuth doped YIG (BiYIG) with tunable PMA has been achieved while preserving a high dynamic quality [4]. It was shown that the emission characteristics of SWs emitted by SOT in thin BiYIG films where PMA compensates the in-plane shape anisotropy are greatly improved [5]. Here, we study the magnetization dynamics in individual nanodisks patterned from such a 30 nm thick BiYIG film, with diameters ranging from 1 µm down to 200 nm. The static magnetic field is applied perpendicularly to the sample plane. To excite the ferromagnetic resonance (FMR) of the BiYIG nanodisks, we use the spatially uniform in-plane microwave field produced by an antenna integrated on top. To detect it, we employ a magnetic resonance force microscope [6] in which a cobalt nanosphere grown at the tip of a soft cantilever [7] is dipolarly coupled to the longitudinal component of the magnetization of the nanodisk positioned underneath (Fig. 1). By studying the SW spectra of these BiYIG nanodisks in the linear regime, we find that their effective anisotropy field is weakly dependent of the diameter and negative, about -10 mT, which means that the PMA slightly overcompensates the shape anisotropy. The damping parameter is found to increase as the diameter is decreased and lies in the high 10-4 – low 10-3 range for all disks. We then perform measurement of the main resonance line, corresponding to the quasi-uniform mode, as a function of the microwave power injected into the antenna, which is varied by up to four orders of magnitude (excitation field ranging from 0.03 mT to 3 mT at 5 GHz). For all the disks, we observe a distortion of the resonance line at intermediate excitation power, corresponding to the onset of foldover. As expected, due to the negative effective anisotropy field, the resonance line shifts towards higher magnetic field as the precession angle increases, which is opposite to the behavior reported on undoped YIG nanodisks [3]. For the largest BiYIG disks, the dynamics witnessed at higher power is quite more complex and interesting, as shown in Fig. 2 for the 700 nm diameter nanodisk. We observe a rapid saturation of the peak amplitude, corresponding to average precession angles of the order of 10° to 20°, accompanied with a broadening of the line towards both lower and higher magnetic field. To understand this behavior, we perform extensive micromagnetic simulations. Using the magnetic parameters extracted in the linear regime and the nominal geometry of the nanodisks, these simulations reproduce the main characteristics of the measured FMR lines in the strongly nonlinear regime. They reveal that a dynamic instability is responsible of the observed behavior: as the amplitude of the quasi-uniform mode increases with the driving field, its precession profile gets more and more localized at the center of the disk, which eventually leads to the formation of a dynamic soliton similar to a wave bullet [8]. Moreover, this soliton is not stable over time, resulting in a rich temporal dynamics, which, depending on the exact driving conditions, can be quasi-periodic or intermittent. To experimentally access this complex temporal dynamics, we use the method introduced in [3], which consists in applying a second, much weaker excitation field of varying frequency, in addition to the main driving field at high power. The obtained frequency modulation spectra indeed reflect the existence of rich low-frequency temporal variations in the dynamics of the magnetization, as suggested by the simulations.

 Strongly nonlinear ferromagnetic resonance of Bi-doped YIG nanodisks

Spontaneous symmetry breaking is an ubiquitous ingredient in physics. It governs second order phase transitions whose statics are well described within the universal Ginzburg-Landau (GL) theory, as confirmed by a number of observations. However, the picture for the corresponding dynamics is less clear. Indeed, in the ordered phase, GL theory predicts two different low-energy excitations: the zero frequency Goldstone mode, corresponding to an oscillation of the phase of the order parameter, and the non-zero-frequency Higgs mode, corresponding to an oscillation of its amplitude.[1] In practice, the amplitude mode has remained very difficult to observe in condensed matter, either because it does not couple to the experimental probes or because it decays too fast into other types of excitations.[1] In this communication, we show that an archetypal micromagnetic texture, the so-called weak magnetic stripes,[2] constitutes an ideal platform to investigate such dynamics. Combining Brillouin light scattering with micromagnetic simulations and analytical modeling, we evidence spin wave features that can be directly identified to Goldstone/Higgs modes. The system is a 180nm thick amorphous CoFeB ferromagnetic magnetic film exhibiting a small perpendicular magnetic anisotropy K.[3] Under a strong enough in-plane magnetic field H, the film is homogeneously saturated. However, its spin-wave spectrum already displays a characteristic feature precursor of the nucleation of an inhomogeneous magnetic texture. This is shown in figure 1b, which displays a color plot of the spin-wave dispersion simulated in the Damon Eshbach configuration (wave-vector k⊥H). One recognizes a low frequency branch with a minimum around kc=21 rad/µm. Upon reducing the field, this minimum shifts to lower frequency and eventually reaches the horizontal axis (Fig. 1c), which is the behavior expected in the GL description: Upon approaching the critical field Hc, the curvature of the magnetic energy along a certain direction in the configuration space decreases to zero, which is associated to the softening of the corresponding normal mode. The mode profile at this point is shown in Fig. 1d: one recognizes an undulation of the vertical component of the magnetization in the middle of the film, together with quadrature undulations of the in-plane component of the magnetization on the top and bottom surfaces insuring magnetic flux closure. This pattern, and the critical fields and wavelength, correspond precisely to the weak magnetic stripes observed in this system. [3]. Indeed, upon further decreasing the field, the nucleation proceeds as a freeze of the soft spin-wave mode in a state with a given phase (or equivalently a given lateral position within the period), which constitutes the broken symmetry. Concomitantly, the characteristic cusp of the spin wave spectrum splits in two: One branch remains soft and a second one emerges with a gradual increase of its minimum frequency (Fig. 2a,b). Inspecting the spatial profile of these two modes (Fig. 2c,d) allows one to recognize them unambiguously as a Goldstone mode (rigid lateral oscillation of the stripe texture) and a Higgs mode (oscillation of the amplitude of the texture around its equilibrium value), respectively. We probe these modes experimentally using Brillouin light scattering onto thermally excited spin waves. The symbols in Fig.1b,c and Fig.2b show the position of the measured peaks. Although the limited wave-vector / frequency range accessible (&lt;20rad/µm, &gt;2GHz) does not allow to cover all the way down to the cusp, the agreement with the simulations is good. In particular, the measured dispersions display the very characteristic features predicted, namely the negative slopes (in the k⊥H configuration this can only happen due to the perpendicular anisotropy), the critical softening and the subsequent splitting in the broken symmetry phase. These essential features are visible around Hc and kc, which explains why they have been largely overlooked by the magnetism community, as previous dynamic studies of stripe domains had focused onto the k≈0 (ferromagnetic resonance) and/or deep supercritical (near remanence) regimes.[4,5] To support this identification, we shall present a Ginzburg Landau theory of weak stripe statics based on a stray-field-free ansatz [2,6] and extend it to the dynamics using the dipole-exchange spin wave formalism.[7] We shall also discuss the observability of these characteristic spin-wave modes for different measurements and compare them with Higgs/Goldstone modes occurring in other condensed-matter systems at completely different length/energy scales.[1,8]

 Observation of Higgs and Goldstone spin-wave modes in weak magnetic stripes

The significance of phase noise lies in the fact that most if not all devices based on magnons employ the nonlinearity of the magnetic system in order to realize their functionalities. An important entity in such parametrically excited systems is the phase of the magnons, which plays a crucial role in governing the nonlinear physics and hence the physical properties of interest of such devices. It is due to this importance of phase that in the recent past, many devices have been proposed and/or demonstrated that directly employ the magnon phase for the realization of important applications. The analytical theory developed is supported using rigorous GPU-based micromagnetic simulations [1]. A 5.1 μm thick sample of yttrium iron garnet (YIG) with saturation magnetization, 145 emu/cm3 , and exchange constant, 3.77 x 10-7 erg/cm is used. Demagnetization-, exchange-, and thermal-fields are included in addition to the applied-fields. A primary microwave signal of 6 GHz is used at a bias-field of .200 Oe. In our previous study [2], we had provided an accurate theoretical prediction of the increase in the threshold-field when an additional secondary signal is introduced. The secondary signal modifies the phase-relationship between the magnons and the primary microwave signal. While the importance of the phase as a fundamental entity has increased, studies on the implications of the phase-noise are few. This is due primarily to the difficulties in accessing, manipulating, and analyzing the phase accurately. Previous studies of noise mainly consider thermal-noise and often make use of the macrospin approximation. In magnonics, noise studies exist largely only for spin-torque oscillators. In the radio frequency (RF) applications, noise is usually modeled at a circuit level [3], and a microscopic study of phase-noise remains to be done. Ours is a more general treatment of phase-noise implications and, consequently, applicable across all magnon-based nonlinear applications. We have used analytical techniques drawn from hydrodynamics to evaluate the effects of phase-noise. Moreover, the simulations performed are based on state-of-art GPUs, using software optimized to study the magnon based physics specifically. Such simulations would not have been computationally possible in the past. Hence, this is a timely study of an important entity. (1) At first, we introduce a Gaussian phase-noise of zero mean and standard-deviation,σ , to understand its impact on the nonlinearity threshold. For a temporal-noise, we find that the threshold-field scales as e(σ^2)/2, but the growth rate of the magnons that partly determines the transient-time scales as e-(σ^2)/2 (Fig. 1). We have demonstrated these results analytically as well as using micromagnetic simulations. The results are of particular importance for RF devices like Frequency Selective Limiters (FSLs), Signal to Noise-ratio Enhancers, etc., that are often employed in noisy environments and are therefore subjected to temporal phase-noise. As mentioned earlier, few studies of phase-noise at the magnonic scale exists for such conventional RF devices despite the nonlinear behavior being a crucial part of device-functionality. (2) We find that similar changes as above are seen in the threshold-field and the growth-rate when a spatial phase-noise of similar mean and standard-deviation is employed. As can be observed from Fig. 2, the simulation data-points are nearly identical to those obtained in the case of temporal noise. For magnonic applications [4], this points to the importance of process variations and microstructural quality during the production of magnetic samples that can give rise to spatial-noise conditions. (3) Compared with phase-noise, we find that frequency-noise leads to only trivial variations in the threshold-field. Frequency noise alters the amplitude of the spin-waves. Therefore, information when encoded into the spin-wave amplitude, is more likely to suffer distortion under frequency noise when compared with phase noise. Apart from lowering the signal to noise ratio, frequency noise increases the magnon frequency deviation. Some of the proposed magnonic logic schemes [5] employ a combination of amplitude-, phase- and frequency- encoding to realize beyond-Neumann architectures where the above considerations would be crucial. Likewise, these results also play an important role in conventional communication systems that employ a combination of modulation techniques. Our studies, thus, allow phase noise considerations to be included in the design and/or operation of nonlinear magnetic devices. These results are important for both the traditional and novel magnon-based applications since device performance characteristics often strongly depend on the threshold-field as well as the transient-time. This is evident, e.g., in the ongoing efforts to miniaturize nonlinear magnetic rf device -FSL- especially for autonomous automobile applications [6]. Also, our results are independent of the mode of pumping (parallel or perpendicular) and the magnetic-material (applies to insulators, e.g., YIG as well as metals, e.g., NiFe). The results, in general, could be used to understand the nonlinear properties of other parametric systems that involve three-particle processes.
