The ability to achieve strong-coupling has made cavity-magnon systems an exciting platform for the development of hybrid quantum systems and the investigation of fundamental problems in physics. Unfortunately, current experimental realizations are constrained to operate at a single frequency, defined by the geometry of the microwave cavity. In this article we realize a highly-tunable, cryogenic, microwave cavity strongly coupled to magnetic spins. The cavity can be tuned in situ by up to 1.5 GHz, approximately 15% of its original 10 GHz resonance frequency. Moreover, this system remains within the strong-coupling regime at all frequencies with a cooperativity of approximately 800.

We present a generic theoretical framework to describe non-reciprocal microwave circulation in a multimode cavity magnonic system and assess the optimal performance of practical circulator devices. We show that high isolation (> 56 dB), extremely low insertion loss (< 0.05 dB), and flexible bandwidth control can be potentially realized in high-quality-factor superconducting cavity based magnonic platforms. These circulation characteristics are analyzed with materials of different spin densities. For high-spin-density materials such as yttrium iron garnet, strong coupling operation regime can be harnessed to obtain a broader circulation bandwidth. We also provide practical design principles for a highly integratible low-spin-density material (vanadium tetracyanoethylene) for narrow-band circulator operation, which could benefit noise-sensitive quantum microwave measurements. This theory can be extended to other coupled systems and provide design guidelines for achieving tunable microwave non-reciprocity for both classical and quantum applications.
We experimentally study the magnon-photon coupling in a system consitsing of the compensating ferrimagnet gadolinium iron garnet (GdIG) and a three-dimensional microwave cavity. The temperature is varied in order to tune the GdIG magnetization and to observe the transition from the weak coupling regime to the strong coupling regime. By measuring and modelling the complex reflection parameter of the system the effective coupling rate g eff and the magnetization M eff of the sample are extracted. Comparing g eff with the magnon and the cavity decay rate we conclude that the strong coupling regime is easily accessible using GdIG. We show that the effective coupling strength follows the predicted square root dependence on the magnetization.
We show how to generate tripartite entanglement in a cavity magnomechanical system which consists of magnons, cavity microwave photons, and phonons. The magnons are embodied by a collective motion of a large number of spins in a macroscopic ferrimagnet, and are driven directly by an electromagnetic field. The cavity photons and magnons are coupled via magnetic dipole interaction, and the magnons and phonons are coupled via magnetostrictive (radiation pressure-like) interaction. We show optimal parameter regimes for achieving the tripartite entanglement where magnons, cavity photons, and phonons are entangled with each other, and we further prove that the steady state of the system is a genuinely tripartite entangled state. The entanglement is robust against temperature. Our results indicate that cavity magnomechanical systems could provide a promising platform for the study of macroscopic quantum phenomena.
Achieving quantum-level control over electromagnetic waves, magnetisation dynamics, vibrations and heat is invaluable for many practical application and possible by exploiting the strong radiation-matter coupling. Most of the modern strong microwave photon-magnon coupling developments rely on the integration of metal-based microwave resonators with a magnetic material. However, it has recently been realised that all-dielectric resonators made of or containing magneto-insulating materials can operate as a standalone strongly-coupled system characterised by low dissipation losses and strong local microwave field enhancement. Here, after a brief overview of recent developments in the field, I discuss examples of such dielectric resonant systems and demonstrate their ability to operate as multiresonant antennas for light, microwaves, magnons, sound, vibrations and heat. This multiphysics behaviour opens up novel opportunities for the realisation of multiresonant coupling such as, for example, photon-magnon-phonon coupling. I also propose several novel systems in which strong photon-magnon coupling in dielectric antennas and similar structures is expected to extend the capability of existing devices or may provide an entirely new functionality. Examples of such systems include novel magnetofluidic devices, high-power microwave power generators, and hybrid devices exploiting the unique properties of electrical solitons.
The Casimir force was predicted in 1948 as a force arising between macroscopic bodies from the zero-point energy. At finite temperatures it has been shown that a thermal Casimir force exists due to thermal rather than zero-point energy and there are a growing number of experiments that characterise the effect at a range of temperatures and distances. Additionally, in the rapidly evolving field of cavity optomechanics there is an endeavor to manipulate phonons and enhance coherence. We demonstrate a new way to achieve this through the first observation of Casimir spring and dilution in macroscopic optomechanics, by coupling a metallic SiN membrane to a photonic re-entrant cavity. The attraction of the spatially-localised Casimir spring mimics a non-contacting boundary condition giving rise to increased strain and acoustic coherence through dissipation dilution. This work invents a new way to manipulate phonons via thermal photons leading to ``in situ reconfigurable mechanical states, to reduce loss mechanisms and to create new types of acoustic non-linearity -- all at room temperature.
