Spin Waves and Spin Currents in Magnon-Phonon Composite Resonator Induced by Acoustic Waves of Various Polarizations

In this work, we present the results of a systematic experimental study of linear and parametric spin wave resonant excitation accompanied by spin currents (spin pumping) in a multifrequency composite bulk acoustic wave resonator with a ZnO-YIG-GGG-YIG/Pt structure. The features of magnetic dynamics excitation in YIG films due to magnetoelastic coupling with acoustic thickness modes of various polarizations are studied. Acoustic spin waves and spin pumping are detected by simultaneous frequency-field mapping of the inverse spin Hall effect voltage and the resonant frequencies of thickness extensional modes. In the parametric range of frequencies and fields, acoustic spin pumping induced by both shear and longitudinal polarization modes was observed. Linear acoustic spin waves are excited only by shear thickness extensional modes because longitudinal acoustic waves do not couple with the magnetic subsystem in linear regime.

Magnons Parametric Pumping in Bulk Acoustic Waves Resonator

We report on the experimental observation of excitation and detection of parametric spin waves and spin currents in the bulk acoustic wave resonator. The hybrid resonator consists of ZnO piezoelectric film, yttrium iron garnet (YIG) films on gallium gadolinium garnet substrate, and a heavy metal Pt layer. Shear bulk acoustic waves are electrically excited in the ZnO layer due to piezoeffect at the resonant frequencies of the resonator. The magnetoelastic interaction in the YIG film emerges magnons (spin waves) excitation by acoustic waves either on resonator's eigenfrequencies or the half-value frequencies at supercritical power. We investigate acoustic pumping of magnons at the half-value frequencies and acoustic spin pumping from parametric magnons, using the inverse spin Hall effect in the Pt layer. The constant electric voltage in the Pt layer, depending on the frequency, the magnetic field, and the pump power, was systematically studied. We explain the low threshold obtained (~0.4 mW) by the high efficiency of electric power transmission into the acoustic wave in the resonator.

Yttrium Iron Garnet Thickness Influence on the Spin Pumping in the Bulk Acoustic Wave Resonator

The features of phonon-magnon interconversion in acoustic resonator determine the efficiency of spin pumping from YIG into Pt that may be detected electrically through the inverse spin Hall effect (ISHE). Based on the methods developed in previous works for calculating resonator structures with a piezoelectric (ZnO) and a magnetoelastic layer in contact with the heavy metal (YIG/Pt), we present the results of numerical calculations of YIG film thickness influence on acoustically driven spin waves. We obtain some YIG film thickness regions with various behavior of dc ISHE voltage $U_{ISHE}$. At micron and submicron thicknesses, the higher spin wave resonance (SWR) modes (both even and odd) can be generated with efficiency comparable and even exceeding that of the main mode. The absolute maximum of $U_{ISHE}$ is achieved at the thickness about $s_1 \approx 208$ nm under the excitation of the first SWR.

Acoustic excitation and electrical detection of spin waves and spin currents in hypersonic bulk waves resonator with YIG/Pt system

We report on the self-consisted semi-analytical theory of magnetoelastic excitation and electrical detection of spin waves and spin currents in hypersonic bulk acoustic waves resonator with ZnO-GGG-YIG/Pt layered structure. Electrical detection of acoustically driven spin waves occurs due to spin pumping from YIG to Pt and inverse spin Hall (ISHE) effect in Pt as well as due to electrical response of ZnO piezotransducer. The frequency-field dependences of the resonator frequencies and ISHE voltage $U_{ISHE}$ are correlated with experimental ones observed previously. Their fitting allows to determine some magnetic and magnetoelastic parameters of YIG. The analysis of the YIG film thickness influence on $U_{ISHE}$ gives the possibility to find the optimal thickness for maximal $U_{ISHE}$ value.
