We present a statistically motivated method to extract magnonic contrast from STXM-FMR measurement with microwave frequencies of the order of unit[10]{GHz}. With this method it is possible to generate phase and amplitude profiles with a spatial resolution of about unit[30]{nm} given by the STXM resolution, furthermore this method allows fo a rigoros transformation to reciprocal vec{k}-space, revealing vec{k}-dependent magnon properties.

We study the propagation of surface spin waves in two wave guides coupled through the dipole-dipole interaction. Essential for the observations made here is the magneto-electric coupling between the spin waves and the effective ferroelectric polarization. This allows an external electric field to act on spin waves and to modify the band gaps of magnonic excitations in individual layers. By an on/off switching of the electric field and/or varying its strength or direction with respect to the equilibrium magnetization, it is possible to permit or ban the propagation of the spin waves in selected waveguide. We propose experimentally feasible nanoscale device operating as a high fidelity surface wave magnonic gate.
When the crystalline symmetries that protect a higher-order topological phase are not preserved at the boundaries of the sample, gapless hinge modes or in-gap corner states cannot be stabilized. Therefore, careful engineering of the sample termination is required. Similarly, magnetic textures, whose quantum fluctuations determine the supported magnonic excitations, tend to relax to new configurations that may also break crystalline symmetries when boundaries are introduced. Here we uncover that antiskyrmion crystals provide an experimentally accessible platform to realize a magnonic topological quadrupole insulator, whose hallmark signature are robust magnonic corner states. Furthermore, we show that tuning an applied magnetic field can trigger the self-assembly of antiskyrmions carrying a fractional topological charge along the sample edges. Crucially, these fractional antiskyrmions restore the symmetries needed to enforce the emergence of the magnonic corner states. Using the machinery of nested Wilson loops, adapted to magnonic systems supported by noncollinear magnetic textures, we demonstrate the quantization of the bulk quadrupole moment, edge dipole moments, and corner charges.
Strong coupling between magnons and cavity photons was studied extensively for quantum electrodynamics in the past few years. Recently, the strong magnon-magnon coupling between adjacent layers in magnetic multilayers has been reported. However, the strongly coupled magnons confined in a single nanomagnet remains to be revealed. Here, we report the interaction between different magnon modes in a single magnonic cavity. The intermodel coupling between edge and center magnon modes in the strong coupling regime was approached with a maximum coupling strength of 0.494 GHz and cooperativity of 60.1 with a damping of 1X10-3. Furthermore, it is found that the coupling strength is highly dependent on the geometric parameters of the magnonic cavity. Our findings could greatly enrich the still evolving field of quantum magnonics.
Universal driving protocol for symmetry-protected Floquet topological phasesWe propose a universal driving protocol for the realization of symmetry-protected topological phases in $2+1$ dimensional Floquet systems. Our proposal is based on the theoretical analysis of the possible symmetries of a square lattice model with pairwise nearest-neighbor coupling terms. Among the eight possible symmetry operators we identify the two relevant choices for topological phases with either time-reversal, chiral, or particle-hole symmetry. From the corresponding symmetry conditions on the protocol parameters, we obtain the universal driving protocol where each of the symmetries can be realized or broken individually. We provide specific parameter values for the different cases, and demonstrate the existence of symmetry-protected copropagating and counterpropagating topological boundary states. The driving protocol especially allows us to switch between bosonic and fermionic time-reversal symmetry, and thus between a trivial and non-trivial symmetry-protected topological phase, through continuous variation of a parameter.
Achieving control over magnon spin currents in insulating magnets - where dissipation due to Joule heating is highly suppressed - is an active area of research that could lead to energy-efficient spintronics applications. However, magnon spin currents supported by conventional systems with uniform magnetic order have proven hard to control. An alternative approach that relies on topologically protected magnonic edge states of spatially periodic magnetic textures has recently emerged. A prime example of such textures is the ferromagnetic skyrmion crystal which hosts chiral edge states providing a platform for magnon spin currents. Here, we show, for the first time, an external magnetic field can drive a topological phase transition in the spin wave spectrum of a ferromagnetic skyrmion crystal. The topological phase transition is signaled by the closing of a low-energy bulk magnon gap at a critical field. In the topological phase, below the critical field, two topologically protected chiral magnonic edge states lie within this gap, but they unravel in the trivial phase, above the critical field. Remarkably, the topological phase transition involves an inversion of two magnon bands that at the $Gamma$ point correspond to the breathing and anticlockwise modes of the skyrmions in the crystal. Our findings suggest that an external magnetic field could be used as a knob to switch on and off magnon spin currents carried by topologically protected chiral magnonic edge states.
