Cu(1,3-bdc) is a topological magnon insulator where the Cu ions are arranged in a 2D Kagome lattice&lt;sup&gt;1,2&lt;/sup&gt;. Here, we study the magnetization dynamics of Cu(1,3-bdc) using vibrating sample magnetometry (VSM, Fig.1a) and ferromagnetic resonance (FMR, Fig.1b,c) spectroscopy. We find that the saturation magnetization M&lt;sub&gt;S&lt;/sub&gt; values when an external field H is applied out-of-plane (OOP) is less than M&lt;sub&gt;S&lt;/sub&gt; values when H is applied in-plane (IP) at all tested temperatures. We find similar inequivalence in the g-factor, extracted from the fitted FMR dispersion curves (Fig.2a,b) depending on the direction of H. The g-factor tensor (Fig.2c) points towards orbital momentum contribution to the magnetic moment. As shown in Fig.2d, the temperature dependence of ΔM&lt;sub&gt;S&lt;/sub&gt;=M&lt;sub&gt;S, IP&lt;/sub&gt;-M&lt;sub&gt;S, OOP,&lt;/sub&gt; and Δg=g&lt;sub&gt;IP&lt;/sub&gt;- g&lt;sub&gt;OOP&lt;/sub&gt; are closely correlated at T&amp;lt;6K but they diverge at T&amp;gt;6K. Since the g-factor tensor is most likely mediated by orbital magnetism, the deviation of Δg from ΔM&lt;sub&gt;S&lt;/sub&gt; is unexpected. We propose that this could be a result of thermally-induced non-vanishing spin chirality contributing to the electronic orbital magnetism&lt;sup&gt;3&lt;/sup&gt;. Following the approach in Ref.[3],our analysis shows that the symmetry of the system allows contributions to the orbital magnetization originating from spin excitations for the OOP field, but not the IP field. The prediction of our theoretical assessment is an increase of the g-factor with temperature for OOP field, while it is expected to decay for IP field. The general trend and the change in sign of the g-factor anisotropy observed experimentally at higher temperatures is thus consistent with this theory, which suggests that the spin excitations can renormalize the fundamental quantum mechanical constant conventionally associated with the atomic orbital magnetism. Our findings bring to the forefront a so far not considered mechanism for orbital dynamics in topological magnonic systems.

Cu(1,3-bdc) is a topological magnon insulator where the Cu ions are arranged in a 2D Kagome lattice1,2. Here, we study the magnetization dynamics of Cu(1,3-bdc) using vibrating sample magnetometry (VSM, Fig.1a) and ferromagnetic resonance (FMR, Fig.1b,c) spectroscopy. We find that the saturation magnetization MS values when an external field H is applied out-of-plane (OOP) is less than MS values when H is applied in-plane (IP) at all tested temperatures. We find similar inequivalence in the g-factor, extracted from the fitted FMR dispersion curves (Fig.2a,b) depending on the direction of H. The g-factor tensor (Fig.2c) points towards orbital momentum contribution to the magnetic moment. As shown in Fig.2d, the temperature dependence of ΔMS=MS, IP-MS, OOP, and Δg=gIP- gOOP are closely correlated at T&lt;6K but they diverge at T&gt;6K. Since the g-factor tensor is most likely mediated by orbital magnetism, the deviation of Δg from ΔMS is unexpected. We propose that this could be a result of thermally-induced non-vanishing spin chirality contributing to the electronic orbital magnetism3. Following the approach in Ref.[3],our analysis shows that the symmetry of the system allows contributions to the orbital magnetization originating from spin excitations for the OOP field, but not the IP field. The prediction of our theoretical assessment is an increase of the g-factor with temperature for OOP field, while it is expected to decay for IP field. The general trend and the change in sign of the g-factor anisotropy observed experimentally at higher temperatures is thus consistent with this theory, which suggests that the spin excitations can renormalize the fundamental quantum mechanical constant conventionally associated with the atomic orbital magnetism.

Spin-wave spectroscopy methods, such as electron-spin-resonance [1], and ferromagnetic resonance [2], are vital tools for materials characterization and chemical monitoring. Together with momentum-sensitive techniques, such as Brillouin light scattering, they are also central to spintronics experiments and the design of spintronic and magnonic devices. Here, we demonstrate a new technique to spatially resolve spin-waves on the single nanometer scale with the potential for atomic resolution by transmission electron microscopy (TEM). The precessional torque of a spin excitation is coupled to a highly coherent electron beam, which reveals localized resonant spin excitations in transmission electron microscopy. This technique can be applied in-situ and in-operando on its own and together with conventional spectroscopy methods. As a model system, we present first results of magnonic networks comprising ferromagnetic nanoparticles [3,4] and observe the spatial distributions of various spin-resonance modes.

First Results on Atomically Resolved Spin-Wave Spectroscopy by Transmission Electron Microscopy

We present focusing of spin waves with spherical lenses in YIG by creating a magnonic refractive index change via Ga+ focused ion beam (FIB) irradiation. Direct FIB irradiation in YIG induces an ion-dose-dependent change in the effective magnetization Meff [1], and we use this to locally modify the refractive index. The lenses were designed using the lensmaker’s equation where the relative refraction index is estimated from experiments as nrel=λ0/λFIB= 4.2μm/2.5μm = 1.68. In the experiments, we use an in-house sputtered 100 nm thick YIG film on GGG and obtain the largest △Meff for a dose of 1×1013 ions/cm2. For larger doses, the change in △Meff is reversed and damping increases significantly. The measured spin-wave pattern of two plano-convex spherical lenses is presented in Fig. 1. We use longitudinal time-resolved MOKE microscopy to image the spin-wave patterns in forward volume configuration (isotropic propagation). Bending of the wavefront is visible inside the lenses, as well as the shorter wavelengths. Ion irradiation in thin films to manipulate their magnetic properties has been used in many magnetic materials/compositions but is particularly challenging in insulators. Researchers in our field, to our knowledge, have not FIB irradiated YIG to locally modify the spin-wave dispersion relation, or to pattern YIG without etching. Using spin waves for analog computing (such as optical signal processing) requires precise local modification of the magnetic properties, and we recently demonstrated the potential of FIB patterning by fabricating a concave grating for spin waves realized with higher ion doses that locally destroy magnetic properties of YIG [2]. Furthermore, gradually changing refractive-index maps can be realized by irradiating a dose-gradient, giving access to create gradient-index magnonic elements like GRIN lenses [3],[4],[5].

The irradiation pattern d-shaped lens is indicated in semitransparent red, the groundline of a coplanar antenna for coherent excitation in gray. The initially applied wavelength is 4.3 μm, and shortened to about 2.5 μm inside the lenses due to the FIB induced Meff increase.

Magnon has a potential to be a new information carrier because of its Joule-heating-less and long-distance propagation in ferromagnets [1]. Recently, Das et al. demonstrated that magnon in Y3Fe5O12 (YIG) is absorbed into an adjacent ferromagnet, Ni-Fe alloy (Py), and the absorption can be modulated by the magnetization direction of the Py [2]. Although this study makes progress toward realization of magnonic device, a detailed principle of magnon absorption into metals has not been sufficiently clarified yet. Here, we study magnon propagation with several middle strips (MSs), Py, SiO2, and metals on SiO2 to explore the mechanisms of magnon absorption into metals. Figure 1 shows a schematic of the device. Two Ti/Au coplanar waveguides with the center-to-center distance of 300 μm and an MS with a width of 240 μm were fabricated on a YIG substrate (5 μm in thickness). An external magnetic field (B) applied to the device was swept from 50 mT to 140 mT. AC electric current with the power of 0 dBm and frequency of 5 GHz was injected into the antenna using a vector network analyzer and magnons were excited by the induced AC magnetic field. Magnons propagating in the YIG were partially absorbed by the MS and detected by the other antenna as an induced AC magnetic field. We measured the S21 parameter and calculated |S21| (= ∫|S21|dB) to compare the amounts of the detected magnons. To clarify whether the magnon absorption is an interfacial effect between YIG and Py, we measured the samples with Py and SiO2/Py-MS. Figure 2 shows the comparison of |S21| among the bare YIG, SiO2-MS, Py-MS, and SiO2/Py-MS samples. The SiO2 and Py thicknesses are 10 nm and 16 nm. The magnons detected in the Py and SiO2/Py-MS samples were less than that in the bare YIG sample, and the decrease of Σ|S21| of the sample with the SiO2/Py-MS was not much different from that of the sample with the Py-MS. These results indicate that the absorption is not originated simply from the interfacial effect between YIG and ferromagnet such as spin exchange interaction. We will discuss a possible mechanism of magnon absorption.

Investigation of magnon absorption from Y3Fe5O12 into metals

Investigation of magnon absorption from Y3Fe5O12 into metals

The cross-integration of spin-wave and superconducting technologies is a promising method for creating novel hybrid devices for future information processing technologies to store, manipulate, or convert data in both classical and quantum regimes. Such hybrid devices can exhibit interesting properties such as new resonance spectra features induced by the interchange between superconducting microwave lines and ferromagnetic resonance dynamics of yttrium iron garnet (Y3Fe5O12, YIG) films [1]. On the other hand, hybrid magnon-polariton systems have been typically studied using bulk YIG and three-dimensional microwave photon cavities [2,3]. Limitations in YIG growth have thus far inhibited its incorporation into CMOS compatible technology such as high quality factor superconducting quantum technology. To overcome this impediment, we have used Plasma Focused Ion Beam (PFIB) technology—taking advantage of precision placement down to the micron-scale—to integrate YIG with NbN superconducting microwave devices. Example hybrid devices are shown in Fig.1. Ferromagnetic resonance has been measured at milliKelvin temperatures on PFIB-processed YIG samples using planar microwave circuits. Furthermore, we demonstrate strong coupling between superconducting resonator and YIG ferromagnetic resonance modes by maintaining reasonably low loss while reducing the system down to the micron scale. This achievement of strong coupling on-chip is a crucial step toward fabrication of functional hybrid quantum devices that advantage from spin-wave and superconducting components.

New fascinating phenomena involving coupled spin waves and phonons are observed at the magnetoelastic resonance as acoustically-assisted spin pumping [1, 2] and magnetization swiching [3, 4]. In this context, Surface Acoustic waves (SAW), a mature technology widely used in today's sensors, filters and microwave circuitry trigger efficiently magnetization dynamics: resonant effects are obtained with appropriate intensities and directions of the external magnetic field (Bext). This tunability is an asset for magnonic applications of SAW-FMR (ferromagnetic resonance). Recently, SAW-FMR has been obtained in Fe epitaxially grown on GaAs(001), a spintronic and magnonic compatible magnetoelastic and piezoelectric heterostucture.[5] Here, we show that SAW propagation in Fe thin films is strongly affected by the SWs modes dispersion in the reciprocal space, even at very low K-values. It turns out that the Bext-dependence of the sound velocity depends a lot of the angle between Bext and the SAW vector directions. In particular, the resonant SAW-FMR is possible only in the backward configuration. Furthermore, we give a theoretical description of the observed phenomena by introducing calculated dispersion curves into a phenomenological and approximated approach derived by LLG equations. [6,7] This approach catches the physics of SAW propagation in a Fe thin films, as attested by the comparison with quasi-exact elastic calculations. We give a very good description of the SAW-SW interaction that facilitates the design of magnonic devices where SWs are generated by SAW Interdigital transducers (IDT) and not by much more energy-dissipative inductive antenna.

Effects of Spin Wave Dispersion on Surface Acoustic Wave Velocity

Interference-based magnonic devices – which exploit eigenmode transportation of ordered spins, i.e. spin waves – are potential candidates to overcome the increased power consumption and Joule heating of traditional information storage and transport devices. In this work, we present a custom-made time-resolved magneto-optical Kerr effect (TR-MOKE) microscope for visualizing locally and time-resolved the dynamic magnetization, i.e. propagating spin waves. Using femtosecond laser pulses synchronized to the phase of a microwave source, which is used to drive spin-wave dynamics, we demonstrate time-resolved 2D spin-wave images with a spatial resolution &lt; 500 nm. To investigate magnonic interference behaviors, we fabricate a diffraction grating in a 200 nm thick ferrimagnetic YIG film by argon ion-beam etching. A coplanar waveguide (CPW) located parallel to the grating, is used to coherently excite spin-waves which are imaged by TR-MOKE. Our results represent the experimental realization of a self-imaging phenomenon applied to spin-waves, well-known within the field of linear optics as the Talbot effect [1-3], where it finds several applications in optical measurement techniques. We investigate the spin-wave Talbot effect for different orientations of the external magnetic field with respect to the YIG plane and spin-wave propagation direction. Each geometry displays different interferometric behaviors, in agreement with recent theoretical predictions [2]. Furthermore, as depicted in Fig. 1, we demonstrate that the interference pattern can be tuned through careful selection of the external magnetic field strength. This work contributes to the understanding of spin-wave interference behaviors for enhancing the performance of future magnonic devices.

Fig. 1: The top sketch indicates the sample with the ground line of the CPW (yellow stripe) and the diffraction grating (black squares). The lower images display the MOKE signal, which is indicated by the gray scale, at various external magnetic fields. It can be seen that the localization of the interference maxima can be shifted by changing the external magnetic field strength. Here, the magnetic field was applied along the Y-direction.

Experimental Observation of the Spin-Wave Talbot Effect

Far from thermodynamic equilibrium, nonlinear systems can be characterized by a stationary regime known as a limit cycle. In magnetic systems with a uniaxial symmetry driven with a circularly polarized field, this regime is referred to as the P-mode [1]. P-modes have been experimentally observed in the non-linear ferromagnetic resonance [2]. Stable P-modes can play a role of the equilibrium state for the elementary excitations around them. We show that these excitations can be used in cavity magnonics to explore unique features of non-Hermitian physics such as mode attraction and exceptional points. Level attraction describes a mode coalescence that can take place in open systems. It indicates development of an instability region in the energy spectrum of the coupled system bounded by exceptional points [3]. This regime has been recently observed in a number of experiments in dissipative cavity magnonics [4]. Here, we present a theory of mode attraction in periodically driven systems. Our theory can be used in conjunction with numerical micromagnetics to describe non-Markovian Floquet systems [5], which allows us to determine the regions of stability and instability and associate them with mode repulsion and attraction. In magnetic systems, our approach works for quantum and semiclassical dynamics, which makes possible to use it in combination with micromagnetic simulations. We apply this approach to demonstrate the level attraction between the excitations around the P-modes and the photons inside a microwave cavity. In a system driven with a circularly polarized field, the excitations around the P-mode form two side bands around the driving frequency (see figure). We show that when the lower side band couples to the cavity mode, it forms a mode attraction spectrum. Finally we discuss possibilities for experimental observation and predicted dependences on driving field amplitude.

Circular component of the precessing spin driven with the circularly polarized field. The central peak is the P-mode with the frequency of the driving field. Two side bands correspond to the excitation around the P-mode. Coupling to the side band with the negative frequency with respect to the driving field gives mode attraction.

Mode attraction in Floquet systems with memory: application to cavity magnonics

Extending nanostructures into the third dimension has become a major research avenue in modern magnetism and spintronics because of geometry-, curvature-, and topology-induced phenomena. Here, we introduce nanovolcanoes as on-demand engineered nano-architectures for 3D magnon spintronics. 40 nm-thick Co-Fe nanovolcanoes with diameters down to 300 nm were fabricated by the focused electron beam-induced deposition (FEBID) technique (Fig. 1) and studied by perpendicular spin-wave resonance (PSWR) spectroscopy. The spin-wave eigenfrequencies of the nanovolcanoes are notably different from the eigenfrequencies of the nanodisks and nanorings they are built from, because of the strongly non-uniform internal magnetic field. The experimental findings were elucidated with the aid of micromagnetic simulations, which indicate that the rings encircling the volcano craters lead to an effective confinement of the lower-frequency eigenmodes under the volcano crater, while the highest-frequency eigenmodes are confined in the ring area (Fig. 2). Accordingly, extension of 2D nanodisks into 3D nanovolcanoes allows to obtain same response in low frequency part of the spectrum in elements with 30% smaller footprints [1]. The nanovolcanoes can be viewed as multi-mode resonators with potential applications in telecom industry. Also, we demonstrated the engineering of the magnetic properties of CoFe-based nanodisks fabricated by FEBID. The material composition was tuned in situ via the e-beam waiting time in the deposition process and their post-growth irradiation with Ga ions. The saturation magnetization Ms of the nanodisks was deduced from PSWR measurements. The achieved variation of Ms in the broad range from 720 to 1430 emu/cm3 continuously bridges the gap between the Ms values of widely used magnonic materials such as Permalloy and CoFeB [2].

The appearance of spontaneous coherence is a fundamental feature of a Bose–Einstein condensate (BEC) and an essential requirement for possible applications of the condensates for classical and quantum computing. Using a magnon BEC in a magnetic crystal, such computing can be performed even at room temperature. Using specially shaped bulk samples of yttrium iron garnet crystal, we developed a novel efficient method of BEC investigation by direct detection of microwave radiation emitted by parametrically driven magnon gas (Fig.1a-b). By using this method, we studied the process of coherence formation in a magnon BEC and demonstrated that no coherent BEC state could be found during the action of a strong magnetic pumping field. At the same time, after the pumping is terminated, the overpopulated magnon gas evolves toward BEC and reaches full coherence, with the width of the magnon radiation spectrum decreasing by more than two orders of magnitude (Fig. 1c). The residual bandwidth is mainly determined by the lifetime of magnons, as expected for a fully coherent BEC consisting of a single magnon state. This direct demonstration of the magnon BEC coherence [1] brings the implementation of room temperature BEC-based computing closer. Moreover, the magnon BEC coupling with dynamic stray fields outside the sample is enabled by a proper choice of the sample shape giving direct spectroscopic access to the BEC. Such an approach can function as a convenient tool for integrating magnetic quantum systems into electrical environments.

Evolution of Room-Temperature Magnon Gas toward Coherent Bose–Einstein Condensate

Interaction between quasiparticles of a different nature, such as magnons and phonons, leads to mixing their properties and forming hybrid quasiparticles—hybrid magnetoelastic bosons, also called magnon polarons—in the areas of intersection of individual spectral branches. In garnet ferrite films, such hybridization results in several new phenomena as the resonant increase in the efficiency of the spin Seebeck effect [1,2] and the spontaneous bottleneck accumulation [3] of the magnetoelastic quasiparticles. Similar to the Bose-Einstein magnon condensation (BEC) [4], the latter phenomenon occurs at the bottom of the magnon spectrum in yttrium iron garnet films exposed to microwaves. However, unlike the BEC, which is a consequence of the equilibrium Bose statistics, the bottleneck accumulation is determined by changing interparticle interactions. Studying the transport properties of accumulated quasiparticles [5], we found that such accumulation occurs in two frequency-distant groups: quasiphonons and quasimagnons. These quasiparticles propagate in the film plane as spatially localized beams with distinctly different directions and velocities. The developed theoretical model describes the double accumulation effect. Parametrically pumped magnons scatter through a step-by-step thermalization process towards the lower energy states. At the magnon-phonon hybridization region, the efficiency of nonlinear scattering decreases, and the downward quasiparticle flux slows down. Owing to the bottleneck effect, quasimagnons form a density peak, in which intensity saturates due to their scattering to the lowest branch of the magnon spectrum. The remaining quasimagnons, scattering to phonon states below the magnon spectrum, transform into quasiphonons with vanishing scattering amplitude. These quasiphonons form the second accumulated group. By considering the 2D magnon-phonon spectrum, we determined the wavevectors and frequencies of each group and concluded about the caustic nature of the quasimagnon beams. Due to nonzero group velocity, the accumulated quasiparticles can be used for data transfer in magnon spintronics.
