Modern-days CMOS-based computation technology is reaching its fundamental limitations. The emerging field of magnonics, which utilizes spin waves for data transport and processing, proposes a promising path to overcome these limitations. Different devices have been demonstrated recently on the macro- and microscale, but the feasibility of the magnonics approach essentially relies on the scalability of the structure feature size down to an extent of a few 10 nm, which are typical sizes for the established CMOS technology. Here, we present a study of propagating spin-wave packets in individual yttrium iron garnet (YIG) conduits with lateral dimensions down to 50 nm. Space and time resolved micro-focused Brillouin-Light-Scattering (BLS) spectroscopy is used to characterize the YIG nanostructures and measure the spin-wave decay length and group velocity directly. The revealed magnon transport at the scale comparable to the scale of CMOS proves the general feasibility of a magnon-based data processing.

The research field of magnonics proposes a low-energy wave-logic computation technology based on spin waves to complement the established CMOS technology and to provide a basis for emerging unconventional computation architectures, e.g. neuromorphic or quantum computing. However, magnetic damping is a limiting factor for all-magnonic logic circuits and multi-device networks, ultimately rendering mechanisms to efficiently manipulate and amplify spin waves a necessity. In this regard, parallel pumping is a versatile tool since it allows to selectively generate and amplify spin waves. While extensively studied in microscopic systems, nano-scaled systems are lacking investigation to assess the feasibility and potential future use of parallel pumping in magnonics. Here, we investigate a longitudinally magnetized 100 nm-wide magnonic nano-conduit using space and time-resolved micro-focused Brillouin-light-scattering spectroscopy. Employing parallel pumping to generate spin waves, we observe that a non-resonant excitation of dipolar spin-waves is favored over the resonant excitation of short wavelength exchange spin waves. In addition, we utilize this technique to access the effective spin-wave relaxation time of an individual nano-conduit, observing a large relaxation time up to (115.0 +- 7.6) ns. Despite the significant decrease of the ellipticity of the magnetization precession in the investigated nano-conduit, a reasonably small threshold is found rendering parallel parametric amplification feasible on the nano-scale.
Spin waves are promising candidates for information processing and transmission in a broad frequency range. In the realization of magnonic devices, the frequency depended division of the spin wave frequencies is a critical function for parallel infor mation processing. In this work, we demonstrate a proof-of-concept spin-wave frequency division multiplexing method by magnetizing a homogenous magnetic microstripe with an inhomogeneous field. The symmetry breaking additional field is introduced by a permalloy stripe simply placed in lateral proximity to the waveguide. Spin waves with different frequencies can propagate independently, simultaneously and separately in space along the shared waveguide. This work brings new potentials for parallel information transmission and processing in magnonics.
Spin-phonon interaction is an important channel for spin and energy relaxation in magnetic insulators. Understanding this interaction is critical for developing magnetic insulator-based spintronic devices. Quantifying this interaction in yttrium iron garnet (YIG), one of the most extensively investigated magnetic insulators, remains challenging because of the large number of atoms in a unit cell. Here, we report temperature-dependent and polarization-resolved Raman measurements in a YIG bulk crystal. We first classify the phonon modes based on their symmetry. We then develop a modified mean-field theory and define a symmetry-adapted parameter to quantify spin-phonon interaction in a phonon-mode specific way for the first time in YIG. Based on this improved mean-field theory, we discover a positive correlation between the spin-phonon interaction strength and the phonon frequency.

A platinum (Pt)/yttrium iron garnet (YIG) bilayer system with a well-controlled interface has been developed; spin mixing conductance at the Pt/YIG interface has been studied. Crystal perfection at the interface is experimentally demonstrated to cont ribute to large spin mixing conductance. The spin mixing conductance is obtained to be $1.3times10^{18} rm{m^{-2}}$ at the well-controlled Pt/YIG interface, which is close to a theoretical prediction.
The dependence of the spin pumping efficiency and the spin mixing conductance on the surface processing of yttrium iron garnet (YIG) before the platinum (Pt) deposition has been investigated quantitatively. The ferromagnetic resonance driven spin pum ping injects a spin polarized current into the Pt layer, which is transformed into an electromotive force by the inverse spin Hall effect. Our experiments show that the spin pumping effect indeed strongly depends on the YIG/Pt interface condition. We measure an enhancement of the inverse spin Hall voltage and the spin mixing conductance of more than two orders of magnitude with improved sample preparation.
