The emerging field of nano-magnonics utilizes high-frequency waves of magnetization - the spin waves - for the transmission and processing of information on the nanoscale. The advent of spin-transfer torque has spurred significant advances in nano-magnonics, by enabling highly efficient local spin-wave generation in magnonic nanodevices. Furthermore, the recent emergence of spin-orbitronics, which utilizes spin-orbit interaction as the source of spin torque, has provided a unique ability to exert spin torque over spatially extended areas of magnonic structures, enabling enhanced spin-wave transmission. Here, we experimentally demonstrate that these advances can be efficiently combined. We utilize the same spin-orbit torque mechanism for the generation of propagating spin waves, and for the long-range enhancement of their propagation, in a single integrated nano-magnonic device. The demonstrated system exhibits a controllable directional asymmetry of spin wave emission, which is highly beneficial for applications in non-reciprocal magnonic logic and neuromorphic computing.

Topological insulators (TIs) hold great promises for new spin-related phenomena and applications thanks to the spin texture of their surface states. However, a versatile platform allowing for the exploitation of these assets is still lacking due to t
he difficult integration of these materials with the mainstream Si-based technology. Here, we exploit germanium as a substrate for the growth of Bi$_2$Se$_3$, a prototypical TI. We probe the spin properties of the Bi$_2$Se$_3$/Ge pristine interface by investigating the spin-to-charge conversion taking place in the interface states by means of a non-local detection method. The spin population is generated by optical orientation in Ge, and diffuses towards the Bi$_2$Se$_3$ which acts as a spin detector. We compare the spin-to-charge conversion in Bi$_2$Se$_3$/Ge with the one taking place in Pt in the same experimental conditions. Notably, the sign of the spin-to-charge conversion given by the TI detector is reversed compared to the Pt one, while the efficiency is comparable. By exploiting first-principles calculations, we ascribe the sign reversal to the hybridization of the topological surface states of Bi$_2$Se$_3$ with the Ge bands. These results pave the way for the implementation of highly efficient spin detection in TI-based architectures compatible with semiconductor-based platforms.
The discovery of spontaneous magnetism in van der Waal (vdW) magnetic monolayers has opened up an unprecedented platform for investigating magnetism in purely two-dimensional systems. Recently, it has been shown that the magnetic properties of vdW ma
gnets can be easily tuned by adjusting the relative composition of halides. Motivated by these experimental advances, here we derive a model for a trihalide CrClBrI monolayer from symmetry principles and we find that, in contrast to its single-halide counterparts, it can display highly anisotropic nearest- and next-to-nearest neighbor Dzyaloshinskii-Moriya and Heisenberg interactions. Depending on the parameters, the DM interactions are responsible for the formation of exotic chiral spin states, such as skyrmions and spin cycloids, as shown by our Monte Carlo simulations. Focusing on a ground state with a two-sublattice unit cell, we find spin-wave bands with nonvanishing Chern numbers. The resulting magnon edge states yield a magnon thermal Hall conductivity that changes sign as function of temperature and magnetic field, suggesting chromium trihalides as a candidate for testing topological magnon transport in two-dimensional noncollinear spin systems.
In solids, electronic Bloch states are formed by atomic orbitals. While it is natural to expect that orbital composition and information about Bloch states can be manipulated and transported, in analogy to the spin degree of freedom extensively studi
ed in past decades, it has been assumed that orbital quenching by the crystal field prevents significant dynamics of orbital degrees of freedom. However, recent studies reveal that an orbital current, given by the flow of electrons with a finite orbital angular momentum, can be electrically generated and transported in wide classes of materials despite the effect of orbital quenching in the ground state. Orbital currents also play a fundamental role in the mechanisms of other transport phenomena such as spin Hall effect and valley Hall effect. Most importantly, it has been proposed that orbital currents can be used to induce magnetization dynamics, which is one of the most pivotal and explored aspects of magnetism. Here, we give an overview of recent progress and the current status of research on orbital currents. We review proposed physical mechanisms for generating orbital currents and discuss candidate materials where orbital currents are manifest. We review recent experiments on orbital current generation and transport and discuss various experimental methods to quantify this elusive object at the heart of $orbitronics$ $-$ an area which exploits the orbital degree of freedom as an information carrier in solid-state devices.
Cavity magnonics deals with the interaction of magnons - elementary excitations in magnetic materials - and confined electromagnetic fields. We introduce the basic physics and review the experimental and theoretical progress of this young field that
is gearing up for integration in future quantum technologies. Much of its appeal is derived from the strong magnon-photon coupling and the easily-reached nonlinear regime in microwave cavities. The interaction of magnons with light as detected by Brillouin light scattering is enhanced in magnetic optical resonators, which can be employed to manipulate magnon distributions. The cavity photon-mediated coupling of a magnon mode to a superconducting qubit enables measurements in the single magnon limit.
Magnons are the elementary excitations of the magnetic order that carry spin, momentum, and energy. Here we compare the magnon with the ferron, i.e. the elementary excitation of the electric dipolar order that transports polarization and heat in ferroelectrics.
