Long-Distance Coherent Propagation of High-Velocity Antiferromagnetic Spin Waves

Jean-Philippe Ansermet, Haiming Yu, Jilei Chen, Yao Zhang, Song Liu, Rundong Yuan, Cheng Song

We report on coherent propagation of antiferromagnetic (AFM) spin waves over a long distance (similar to 10 mu m) at room temperature in a canted AFM alpha-Fe2O3 owing to the Dzyaloshinskii-Moriya interaction (DMI). Unprecedented high group velocities (up ...

Long-distance coherent propagation of magnon polarons in a ferroelectric-ferromagnetic heterostructure

Jean-Philippe Ansermet, Haiming Yu, Peng Chen, Jilei Chen, Jianyu Zhang, Yao Zhang, Song Liu, Jinlong Wang

We experimentally demonstrate the coherent propagation of magnon polarons, the hybridized excitations formed by the coupling of spin waves and Rayleigh/Love surface acoustic waves, in a heterostructure consisting of ferroelectric BaTiO3 and ferromagnetic L ...

Nonlocal Detection of Interlayer Three-Magnon Coupling

Jean-Philippe Ansermet, Haiming Yu, Yu Zhang, Jilei Chen, Song Liu

A leading nonlinear effect in magnonics is the interaction that splits a high-frequency magnon into two low-frequency magnons with conserved linear momentum. Here, we report experimental observation of nonlocal three-magnon scattering between spatially sep ...

Reconfigurable nonreciprocal excitation of propagating exchange spin waves in perpendicularly magnetized yttrium iron garnet thin films

Jean-Philippe Ansermet, Haiming Yu, Yu Zhang, Peng Chen, Jilei Chen, Tao Liu, Jinlong Wang, Rundong Yuan

We report the nonreciprocal excitation of propagating forward volume exchange spin waves in yttrium iron garnet (YIG) thin film with perpendicular anisotropy by bringing the in-plane magnetization of Co20Fe60B20 (CoFeB) nanowires to resonance. All-electric ...

Active Ferromagnetic Metasurface with Topologically Protected Spin Texture for Spectral Filters

Dirk Grundler, Haiming Yu, Jilei Chen

Electromagnetic metasurfaces modulate a material's response to electromagnetic waves by specifically arranged elements with dimensions below the wavelength. They have opened new fields of research, including flat optics and nanophotonics on a chip. Ferroma ...

Magic-angle magnonic nanocavity in a magnetic moiré superlattice

Jean-Philippe Ansermet, Haiming Yu, Jilei Chen, Jianyu Zhang, Yao Zhang, Song Liu, Wenhao Jiang

Moiré superlattices have recently been extensively studied in both electronic and photonic systems, e.g., magic-angle bilayer graphene showing superconductivity and twisted bilayer photonic crystals leading to magic-angle lasers. However, the moiré physics ...

Long decay length of magnon-polarons in BiFeO3/La0.67Sr0.33MnO3 heterostructures

Jean-Philippe Ansermet, Dirk Grundler, Mohammad Hamdi, Peng Gao, Haiming Yu, Yu Zhang, Jilei Chen, Jianyu Zhang

Magnons can transfer information in metals and insulators without Joule heating, and therefore are promising for low-power computation. The on-chip magnonics however suffers from high losses due to limited magnon decay length. In metallic thin films, it is ...

Chiral Spin-Wave Velocities Induced by All-Garnet Interfacial Dzyaloshinskii-Moriya Interaction in Ultrathin Yttrium Iron Garnet Films

Dirk Grundler, Ping Che, Peng Gao, Haiming Yu, Yuehui Li, Sa Tu, Jilei Chen, Jianyu Zhang, Song Liu, Tao Liu

Spin waves can probe the Dzyaloshinskii-Moriya interaction (DMI), which gives rise to topological spin textures, such as skyrmions. However, the DMI has not yet been reported in yttrium iron garnet (YIG) with arguably the lowest damping for spin waves. In ...
