Controlling the Spin-Wave Nonreciprocity of a Crescent-Shaped Nanowire via Curvature and Magnetic Field

Recent studies on spin-wave propagation in ferromagnetic waveguides has highlighted the role of nonreciprocity resulting from the chiral nature of dipolar interactions in curved elements. However, the impact of spin-wave mode type on nonreciprocity remains unexplored. Using micromagnetic simulations supported by analytical modeling, we systematically analyzed the propagation of edge, fundamental, and width-quantized spin-wave modes in a ferromagnetic nanowire with a crescent-shaped cross-section. Our results show that the strength and sign of nonreciprocity depend on the mode type, as well as on the curvature magnitude of the nanowire's top and bottom surfaces and the strength of the external magnetic field. Interestingly, changing the mode type, for instance induced by altering the curvature or magnetic field, result in a significant change in the dispersion relation asymmetry. This effect underscores the important role of spin-wave profiles in nonreciprocity, deepens our fundamental understanding of spin-wave dynamics in curved geometries, and paves the way for designing magnonic waveguides with tailored properties.

Coherent Spin Waves in Curved Ferromagnetic Nanocaps of a 3D-printed Magnonic Crystal

Coherent magnon modes in a truly three-dimensional (3D) magnonic crystal have not yet been investigated. This scientific gap exists despite the numerous theoretical predictions about miniband formation and edge modes with topological protection. Such properties are key to advance nanomagnonics for ultrafast data processing. In this work, we use a scalable nanotechnology and integrate a 3D magnonic crystal to an on-chip microresonator. It was fabricated by two-photon lithography of a 3D woodpile structure and atomic layer deposition of 30-nm-thick nickel. Operated near 14 and 24~GHz, the microresonator output revealed numerous coherent magnons with distinct angular dependencies reflecting the underlying face-centred cubic lattice. Micromagnetic simulations show that the edge modes are localised in curved nanocaps and robust against changes in field orientation. Along an edge, they exhibit an unexpected phase evolution. Our findings advance functional microwave circuits with 3D magnonic crystals and fuel their visionary prospects of edge-dominated magnon modes.

Nucleation and Arrangement of Abrikosov Vortices in Hybrid Superconductor-Ferromagnetic Nanostructure

This study investigates the nucleation, dynamics, and stationary configurations of Abrikosov vortices in hybrid superconductor-ferromagnetic nanostructures exposed to inhomogeneous magnetic fields generated by a ferromagnetic nanodot. Using time-dependent Ginzburg-Landau simulations and Maxwell's equations, we observe and provide an explanation for the evolution of curved vortex structures that undergo creep-like deformation while reaching a steady state. Spatial variations in the Lorentz force, along with the interaction between geometric constraints and vortex interactions, give rise to unusual stationary vortex configurations that gradually change with increasing field strength, a behavior not seen in homogeneous magnetic fields. These findings reveal complex pinning mechanisms, providing valuable insights for the optimization and further advancement of nanoscale superconducting systems.

Magnetic Field Controlled Surface Localization of Spin-Wave Ferromagnetic Resonance Modes in 3D Nanostructures

Extending the current understanding and use of magnonics beyond conventional planar systems, we demonstrate surface localization of spin-wave ferromagnetic resonance (FMR) modes by designing complex three-dimensional nanostructures. Using micromagnetic simulations, we systematically investigate woodpile-like scaffolds and gyroids - periodic chiral entities characterized by their triple junctions. The study highlights the critical role of demagnetizing fields and exchange energy in determining the FMR responses of 3D nanosystems, especially the strongly asymmetric distribution of the spin-wave mode over the system height. Importantly, the top-bottom dynamic switching of the surface mode localization across the structures in response to changes in magnetic field orientation provides a new method for controlling magnetization dynamics. The results demonstrate the critical role of the geometric features in dictating the dynamic magnetic behavior of three-dimensional nanostructures, paving the way for both experimental exploration and practical advances in 3D magnonics.

Gyroid ferromagnetic nanostructures in 3D magnonics

This research chapter provides a comprehensive overview of ferromagnetic gyroidal nanostructures, combining a review of state-of-the-art research with our new findings on their implications for 3D magnonics. Both static and dynamic magnetization studies show that non-trivial shape anisotropy, chirality, and inhomogeneous demagnetization fields influenced by specific crystallographic arrangements lead to multiple low-energy state magnetization textures, spin-wave mode localization, and controllable spin-wave propagation, highlighting the substantial potential of gyroidal nanostructures. The review integrates insights into micro/nano texturing to elucidate the intricate relationships between gyroidal geometry, chirality, and their effective magnetic properties, especially at microwave frequencies. Our study of resonance frequencies in gyroid samples under rotational field manipulation further reveals the significant influence of geometric anisotropy on ferromagnetic resonance signal strength. This chapter establishes a fundamental understanding of ferromagnetic gyroidal nanostructures, paving the way for their future investigation in 3D magnonics.

Spin-Wave Self-Imaging: Experimental and Numerical Demonstration of Caustic and Talbot-like Diffraction Patterns

Extending the scope of the self-imaging phenomenon, traditionally associated with linear optics, to the domain of magnonics, this study presents the experimental demonstration and numerical analysis of spin-wave (SW) self-imaging in an in-plane magnetized yttrium iron garnet film. We explore this phenomenon using a setup in which a plane SW passes through a diffraction grating, and the resulting interference pattern is detected using Brillouin light scattering. We have varied the frequencies of the source dynamic magnetic field to discern the influence of the anisotropic dispersion relation and the caustic effect on the analyzed phenomenon. We found that at low frequencies and diffraction fields, the caustics determine the interference pattern. However, at large distances from the grating, when the waves of high diffraction order and number of slits contribute to the interference pattern, the self-imaging phenomenon and Talbot-like patterns are formed. This methodological approach not only sheds light on the behavior of SW interference under different conditions but also enhances our understanding of the SW self-imaging process in both isotropic and anisotropic media.

Exciting high-frequency short-wavelength spin waves using high harmonics of a magnonic cavity mode

Confined spin-wave modes are a promising object for studying nonlinear effects and future quantum technologies. Here, using micromagnetic simulations, we use a microwave magnetic field from a coplanar waveguide (CPW) to pump a standing spin-wave confined in the cavity of magnonic crystal. We find that the frequency of the fundamental cavity mode is equal to the ferromagnetic resonance frequency of the plane film and overlaps with the magnonic bandgap, allowing high magnetic field tunability. Multi-frequency harmonics of the cavity mode are generated once the microwave amplitude surpasses a certain threshold. Specifically, the second and third harmonics at 0.5 T equate to 48.6 and 72.9 GHz with wavelengths of 44 and 22 nm respectively, which propagate into the crystal. This effect reaches saturation when the CPW covers the entire cavity, making the system feasible for realization. These processes show potential for the advancement of magnonics at high-frequencies and very short-wavelengths.

Spin-wave spectral analysis in crescent-shaped ferromagnetic nanorods

The research on the properties of spin waves (SWs) in three-dimensional nanosystems is an innovative idea in the field of magnonics. Mastering and understanding the nature of magnetization dynamics and binding of SWs at surfaces, edges, and in-volume parts of three-dimensional magnetic systems enables the discovery of new phenomena and suggests new possibilities for their use in magnonic and spintronic devices. In this work, we use numerical methods to study the effect of geometry and external magnetic field manipulations on the localization and dynamics of SWs in crescent-shaped (CS) waveguides. It is shown that changing the magnetic field direction in these waveguides breaks the symmetry and affects the localization of eigenmodes with respect to the static demagnetizing field. This in turn has a direct effect on their frequency. Furthermore, CS structures were found to be characterized by significant saturation at certain field orientations, resulting in a cylindrical magnetization distribution. Thus, we present chirality-based nonreciprocal dispersion relations for high-frequency SWs, which can be controlled by the field direction (shape symmetry) and its amplitude (saturation).

Investigation of Spin-Wave Dynamics in Gyroid Nanostructures

A new concept in magnonics studies the dynamics of spin waves (SWs) in three-dimensional nanosystems. It is a natural evolution from conventionally used planar systems to explore magnetization configurations and dynamics in 3D nanostructures with lengths near intrinsic magnetic scales. In this work, we perform broadband ferromagnetic resonance (BBFMR) measurements and micromagnetic simulations of nanoscale magnetic gyroids - a periodic chiral structure consisting entirely of chiral triple junctions. Our results show unique properties of the network, such as the localization of the SW modes, evoking their topological properties, and the substantial sensitivity to the direction of the static magnetic field. The presented results open a wide range of applications in the emerging field of 3D magnonic crystals and spintronics.
