Spin pumping in YIG-Pt structures: the role of the van Hove singularities
Spin pumping by surface and backward volume magnetostatic waves in YIG/Pt structures is experimentally studied and analyzed. It is shown that at frequencies corresponding to van Hove singularities in the density of states of the spin wave spectrum, an increase in the efficiency of electron-magnon scattering and spin current generation takes place. The obtained results are important for spin wave-based spintronic devices development.
