Control of Dynamics in Weak PMA Magnets

We have recently shown that a hybrid magnetic thin film with orthogonal anisotropies presenting weak stripe domains can achieve a high degree of controllability of its ferromagnetic resonance. This work explores the origin of the reconfigurability through micromagnetic simulations. The static domain structures which control the thin film resonance can be found under a deterministic applied field protocol. In contrast to similar systems reported, our effect can be obtained under low magnetic fields. We have also found through simulations that the spin wave propagation in the hybrid is nonreciprocal: two adjacent regions emit antiparallel spin waves along the stripe domains. Both properties convert the hybrid in a candidate for future magnonic devices at the nanoscale.
