Abstract Miniaturization of magnonic devices for wave-like computing requires emission short-wavelength spin waves, a key feature that cannot be achieved with microwave antennas. In this paper, we propose tunable source waves based on highly localized and strongly pinned magnetic domain walls in ferroelectric-ferromagnetic bilayers. When driven into oscillation by spin-polarized current, the emit same frequency as excitation current. The amplitude emitted range attainable frequencies depend...

Femtosecond laser pulses can induce ultrafast demagnetization as well generate bursts of hot-electron spin currents. In trilayer valves consisting two metallic ferromagnetic layers separated by a nonmagnetic one, currents excited an ultrashort pulse propagate from the first layer through spacer, reaching second magnetic layer. When magnetizations are noncollinear, this current exerts torque on moments in ferromagnet. Since is acting only within subpicosecond timescale, it excites coherent...

Doping ${\mathrm{Bi}}_{2}{\mathrm{Se}}_{3}$ by magnetic ions represents an interesting problem since it may break the time-reversal symmetry needed to maintain topological insulator character. Mn dopants in represent one of most studied examples here. However, there is a lot open questions regarding their ordering. In experimental literature different Curie temperatures or no ferromagnetic order at all are reported for comparable concentrations. This suggests that ordering phenomena complex...
