Localization properties of spin waves in planar magnonic crystals and quasicrystals.

This seminar would be devoted to the localization of spin waves in magnonic crystals and quasicrystals, and SW dynamics in a single nanowire being the building block of these structures [1].
Quasicrystals are structures that exhibit long-range order, lack translational periodicity, but possess another noteworthy symmetry property, which is self-similarity by scaling [2]. Therefore, magnonic quasicrystals surpass regular magnonic crystals [3] regarding provided by them possibilities of spin waves control: they offer complex, self-similar spin wave spectra, localization of spin waves inside the structure, and on the surfaces of the structure [4,5].
The results of joint collaborative research with the experimental groups will be shown, demonstrating the possibility of spin wave propagation through magnonic quasicrystal, the opening of additional mini-bandgaps [6], and the reprogrammability of the resonance frequencies, dependent on the magnetization order in magnonic quasicrystals [7]. The measurements of SWs propagating in a 1D Fibonacci sequence of dipolarly coupled permalloy nanowires are done with the help of a combined X-ray microscopic and Brillouin Light Scattering. The experimental results are interpreted using numerical calculations. Additionally, a simple model estimating frequencies of magnonic gaps in the spin wave spectra of the Fibonacci quasiperiodic structure matches the frequency mini-band gaps calculated numerically and measured experimentally. The demonstrated features of one-dimensional magnonic quasicrystals allow utilizing this class of metamaterials for magnonics and make them an ideal basis for future applications.
