Asymmetric scattering behaviors of spin wave dependent on magnetic vortex chirality

In this letter, an asymmetric spin wave scattering behaviors caused by vortex chirality are investigated in cross-shaped ferromagnetic system. In the system, four scattering behaviors are found, 1) asymmetric skew scattering, depending on the polarity of vortex core, 2) back scattering (reflection), depending on the vortex core stiffness, 3) side deflection scattering, depending on structural symmetry of the vortex circulation, and 4) geometrical scattering, depending on waveguide structure. The first and second scattering behaviors are attributed to nonlinear topological magnon spin Hall effect related to magnon spin-transfer torque effect, which has value for magnonic exploration and application.

Magnon-bandgap controllable artificial domain wall waveguide

In this paper, a magnon-bandgap controllable artificial domain wall waveguide is proposed by means of micromagnetic simulation. By the investigation of the propagation behavior and dispersion relationship of spin waves in artificial domain wall waveguides, it is found that the nonreciprocal propagation of spin waves in the artificial domain walls are mainly affected by the local effective exchange field, and the magnon bandgap can be controlled by changing the maximum value of the effective exchange field. In addition, it is observed that the artificial domain wall waveguides are structurally more stable than the natural domain wall waveguides under the same spin wave injection conditions, and the magnon bandgap of the artificial domain wall waveguides can be adjusted by its width and magnetic anisotropy parameters. The bandgap controllable artificial domain wall scheme is beneficial to the miniaturization and integration of magnon devices and can be applied to future magnonic technology as a novel frequency filter.

Mass-energy equivalence for terahertz magnon excitation in antiferromagnetic domain walls

The theory of special relativity is one of the most significant achievements in modern physics, with several important predictions such as time dilation, size contraction for a moving object and mass-energy equivalence. Recent studies have demonstrated size contraction for an antiferromagnetic (AFM) domain wall (DW). Here, we show the mass-energy equivalence by numerically investigating the excitation of terahertz (THz) magnons from a moving AFM DW under the magnetic anisotropy energy gradient. The energy of magnons comes from the loss of DW mass, accompanied with a DW width broadening, overcoming the Lorentz contraction effect. Our results pave the way to study relativistic physics in AFM textures and to efficiently generate THz magnons by electric means.

RC-circuit-like dynamic characteristic of the magnetic domain wall in ferromagnetic nanowires

We have investigated dynamic behaviors of the magnetic domain wall under perpendicular magnetic field pulses in ferromagnetic nanowires using micromagnetic simulations. It has been found that the perpendicular magnetic field pulse can trigger the magnetic domain wall motion, where all the field torques are kept to be on the plane of nanowire strip. The magnetic domain wall speed faster than several hundreds meters per second is predicted without the Walker breakdown for the perpendicular magnetic driving field stronger than $200~\mathrm{mT}$. Interestingly, the dynamic behavior of the moving magnetic domain wall driven by perpendicular magnetic field pulses is explained by charging- and discharging-like behaviors of an electrical RC-circuit model, where the charging and the discharging of "magnetic charges" on the nanowire planes are considered. The concept of the RC-model-like dynamic characteristic of the magnetic domain wall might be promising for spintronic functional device applications based on the magnetic domain wall motion.
