The inertial dynamics of magnetization in a ferromagnet is investigated theoretically. The analytically derived dynamic response upon microwave excitation shows two peaks: ferromagnetic and nutation resonances. The exact analytical expressions of frequency and linewidth of the magnetic nutation resonance are deduced from the frequency dependent susceptibility determined by the inertial Landau-Lifshitz-Gilbert equation. The study shows that the dependence of nutation linewidth on the Gilbert precession damping has a minimum, which becomes more expressive with increase of the applied magnetic field.

Inertia effects in magnetization dynamics are theoretically shown to result in a different type of spin waves, i.e. nutation surface spin waves, which propagate at terahertz frequencies in in-plane magnetized ferromagnetic thin films. Considering the magnetostatic limit, i.e. neglecting exchange coupling, we calculate dispersion relation and group velocity, which we find to be slower than the velocity of conventional (precession) spin waves. In addition, we find that the nutation surface spin waves are backward spin waves. Furthermore, we show that inertia causes a decrease of the frequency of the precession spin waves, namely magnetostatic surface spin waves and backward volume magnetostatic spin waves. The magnitude of the decrease depends on the magnetic properties of the film and its geometry.
Strongly out-of-equilibrium regimes in magnetic nanostructures exhibit novel properties, linked to the nonlinear nature of magnetization dynamics, which are of great fundamental and practical interest. Here, we demonstrate that field-driven ferromagnetic resonance can occur with substantial spatial coherency at unprecedented large angle of magnetization precessions, which is normally prevented by the onset of spin-wave instabilities and magnetization turbulent dynamics. Our results show that this limitation can be overcome in nanomagnets, where the geometric confinement drastically reduces the density of spin-wave modes. The obtained deeply nonlinear ferromagnetic resonance regime is probed by a new spectroscopic technique based on the application of a second excitation field. This enables to resonantly drive slow coherent magnetization nutations around the large angle periodic trajectory. Our experimental findings are well accounted for by an analytical model derived for systems with uniaxial symmetry. They also provide new means for controlling highly nonlinear magnetization dynamics in nanostructures, which open interesting applicative opportunities in the context of magnetic nanotechnologies.
We report quantitative measurements of optically detected ferromagnetic resonance (ODFMR) of ferromagnetic thin films that use nitrogen-vacancy (NV) centers in diamonds to transduce FMR into a fluorescence intensity variation. To uncover the mechanism responsible for these signals, we study ODFMR as we 1) vary the separation of the NV centers from the ferromagnet (FM), 2) record the NV center longitudinal relaxation time $T_1$ during FMR, and 3) vary the material properties of the FM. Based on the results, we propose the following mechanism for ODFMR. Decay and scattering of the driven, uniform FMR mode results in spinwaves that produce fluctuating dipolar fields in a spectrum of frequencies. When the spinwave spectrum overlaps the NV center ground-state spin resonance frequencies, the dipolar fields from these resonant spinwaves relax the NV center spins, resulting in an ODFMR signal. These results lay the foundation for an approach to NV center spin relaxometry to study FM dynamics without the constraint of directly matching the NV center spin-transition frequency to the magnetic system of interest, thus enabling an alternate modality for scanned-probe magnetic microscopy that can sense ferromagnetic resonance with nanoscale resolution.
Biosensing with ferromagnet-based magnetoresistive devices has been dominated by electrical detection of particle-induced changes to the devices static magnetic configuration. There are however potential advantages to be gained from using field dependent, high frequency magnetization dynamics for magnetic particle detection. Here we demonstrate the use of nano-confined ferromagnetic resonances in periodically patterned magnetic films for the detection of adsorbed magnetic particles with diameters ranging from 6 nm to 4 $mu$m. The nanopatterned films contain arrays of holes which can act as preferential adsorption sites for small particles. Hole-localized particles act in unison to shift the resonant frequencies of the various modes of the patterned layer with shift polarities determined by the localization of each mode within the nanopatterns repeating unit cell. The same polarity shifts are observed for a large range of coverages, even when hole-localized particles are covered by quasi-continuous particle sheets. For large particles however, preferential adsorption no longer occurs, leading to resonance shifts with polarities which are independent of the mode localization. Analogous shifts are seen in continuous layers where, for small particles, the shift of the layers fundamental mode is typically about 10 times less than in patterned systems and induced by relatively weak fields emanating beyond the particle in the direction of the static applied field. This highlights the importance of having confined modes consistently positioned with respect to nearby particles.
The phenomenological equations of motion for the relaxation of ordered phases of magnetized and polarized crystal phases can be developed in close analogy with one another. For the case of magnetized systems, the driving magnetic field intensity toward relaxation was developed by Gilbert. For the case of polarized systems, the driving electric field intensity toward relaxation was developed by Khalatnikov. The transport times for relaxation into thermal equilibrium can be attributed to viscous sound wave damping via magnetostriction for the magnetic case and electrostriction for the polarization case.
