The Dzyaloshinskii-Moriya interaction (DMI), favoring a chiral spin structure like the skyrmion, gives rise to the nonreciprocal propagation of spin waves. We investigate the propagation of spin waves in a nanostripe with the presence of a skyrmion chain by using micromagnetic simulations. Through applying a microwave locally, it is found that when the interval between skyrmions is large enough, the spin waves can be separated to the counter direction according to different frequencies. While for the tightly arranged skyrmions, the skyrmion chain with strong interactions between skyrmions becomes a channel for spin waves, which is around the frequency of skyrmion breathing and exhibit a characteristic of directional propagation. This work opens a vista for skyrmion-based spin wave devices.

We propose a new method to generate magnetic skyrmions through spin-wave focusing in chiral ferromagnets.A lens is constructed to focus spin waves by a curved interface between two ferromagnetic thin films with different perpendicular magnetic anisotropies. Based on the principle of identical magnonic path length, we derive the lens contour that can be either elliptical or hyperbolical depending on the magnon refractive index. Micromagnetic simulations are performed to verify the theoretical design. It is found that under proper condition magnetic skyrmions emerge near the focus point of the lens where the spin-wave intensity has been significantly enhanced. A close investigation shows that a magnetic droplet first forms and then converts to the skyrmion accompanying with a change of topological charge. Phase diagram about the amplitude and duration-time of the exciting field for skyrmion generation is obtained. Our findings would be helpful for designing novel spintronic devices combining the advantages of skyrmionics and magnonics.
We propose a method to generate magnetic skyrmions by focusing spin waves totally reflected by a curved film edge. Based on the principle of identical magnonic path length, we derive the edge contour that is parabolic and frequency-independent. Micromagnetic simulations are performed to verify our theoretical design. It is found that under proper conditions, magnetic droplet first emerges near the focal point where the spin-wave intensity has been significantly enhanced, and then converts to magnetic skyrmion accompanied by a change of the topological charge. The phase diagram about the amplitude and frequency of the driving field for skyrmion generation is obtained. Our finding would be helpful for the designment of spintronic devices combing the advantage of skyrmionics and magnonics.
Transmission of microwave spin waves through a microstructured magnonic crystal in the form of a permalloy waveguide of a periodically varying width was studied experimentally and theoretically. The spin wave characteristics were measured by spatially-resolved Brillouin light scattering microscopy. A rejection frequency band was clearly observed. The band gap frequency was controlled by the applied magnetic field. The measured spin-wave intensity as a function of frequency and propagation distance is in good agreement with a model calculation.
We report on the observation of a new spin mode in a quantum Hall system in the vicinity of odd electron filling factors under experimental conditions excluding the possibility of Skyrmion excitations. The new mode having presumably zero energy at odd filling factors emerges at small deviations from odd filling factors and couples to the spin-exciton. The existence of an extra spin mode assumes a nontrivial magnetic order at partial fillings of Landau levels surrounding quantum Hall ferromagnets other then the Skyrmion crystal.
Spin-wave propagation in an assembly of microfabricated 20 nm thick, 2.5 {mu}m wide Yttrium Iron Garnet (YIG) waveguides is studied using propagating spin-wave spectroscopy (PSWS) and phase resolved micro-focused Brillouin Light Scattering ({mu}-BLS) spectroscopy. We show that spin-wave propagation in 50 parallel waveguides is robust against microfabrication induced imperfections. Spin-wave propagation parameters are studied in a wide range of excitation frequencies for the Damon-Eshbach (DE) configuration. As expected from its low damping, YIG allows the propagation of spin waves over long distances (the attenuation lengths is 25 {mu}m at mu$_{0}$H = 45 mT). Direct mapping of spin waves by {mu}-BLS allows us to reconstruct the spin-wave dispersion relation and to confirm the multi-mode propagation in the waveguides, glimpsed by propagating spin-wave spectroscopy.
