Low‐loss magnetization dynamics and strong magnetoelastic coupling are generally mutually exclusive properties due to opposing dependencies on spin–orbit interactions. So far, the lack of low‐damping, magnetostrictive ferrite films has hindered development power‐efficient magnetoelectric acoustic spintronic devices. Here, magnetically soft epitaxial spinel NiZnAl‐ferrite thin with an unusually low Gilbert damping parameter (<3 × 10 −3 ), as well evidenced by a giant strain‐induced...
