The resistance of the Pt bar deposited on the YIG slab was monitored while the magnetic field was ramped through the ferromagnetic resonance with the YIG slab facing a coplanar waveguide resonator excited at 4.3 GHz excitation. The resistance change provides detection of the ferromagnetic resonance with a high signal-to-noise ratio. It is ascribed to a change in the temperature of the Pt bars. The thermal origin of the signal is confirmed by the observation that the signal vanishes when field modulation is applied at frequencies above 6 Hz. The spin pumping effect was vanishingly small, and the anisotropic magnetoresistance of the Pt bar, though quite easily observed, would imply a rectification voltage that is much smaller than the bolometric effect.
