Seven decades after the discovery of collective spin excitations in microwave-irradiated ferromagnets, there has been a rebirth magnonics. However, magnetic nanodevices will enable smart GHz-to-THz devices at low power consumption only, if such waves (magnons) are generated and manipulated on sub-100 nm scale. Here we show how magnons with wavelength few 10 exploited by combining functionality insulating yttrium iron garnet nanodisks from different ferromagnets. We demonstrate magnonic...

Spin-waves in antiferromagnets hold the prospects for development of faster, less power-hungry electronics and promising physics based on spin superfluids coherent magnon condensates. For both these perspectives, addressing electrically antiferromagnetic spin-waves is importance, a prerequisite that has been so far elusive, because, unlike ferromagnets, couple weakly to radiofrequency fields. Here, we demonstrate detection ultra-fast nonreciprocal dipolar exchange regime canted...
The quanta of magnetic excitations - magnons are known for their unique ability to undergo Bose-Einstein condensation at room temperature. This fascinating phenomenon reveals itself as a spontaneous formation coherent state under the influence incoherent stimuli. Spin currents have been predicted offer electronic control condensates, but this has not experimentally evidenced up now. Here we show that current-driven can be achieved in nanometer-thick films insulators with tailored...
Abstract The brain naturally binds events from different sources in unique concepts. It is hypothesized that this process occurs through the transient mutual synchronization of neurons located regions when stimulus presented. This mechanism ‘binding synchronization’ can be directly implemented neural networks composed coupled oscillators. To do so, oscillators must able to mutually synchronize for range inputs corresponding a single class, and otherwise remain desynchronized. Here we show...

Abstract The self-synchronization of spin torque oscillators is investigated experimentally by re-injecting its radiofrequency (rf) current after a certain delay time. We demonstrate that the integrated power and spectral linewidth are improved for optimal delays. Moreover varying phase difference between emitted re-injected one, we find clear oscillatory dependence on with 2π periodicity frequency oscillator as well linewidth. Such periodical behavior within self-injection regime described...
We investigate the effect of an electrical current on attenuation length a 900 nm wavelength spin-wave in permalloy/Pt bilayer using propagating spectroscopy. The modification relaxation rate is linear density, reaching up to 14% for density 2.3 × 1011 A/m2 Pt. This change attributed spin transfer torque induced by Hall and corresponds effective angle 0.13, which among highest values reported so far. thus appears as efficient way amplifying/attenuating waves.
