We report experimental observation of the refraction and re ection of propagating magnetostatic spin waves crossing a 90-degree domain wall (DW) in terms of time-resolved magneto-optical imaging. Due to the magnetization rotation across the 90-degree DW, the dispersion relation of magnetostatic spin waves rotates by 90 degrees, which results in the change in the propagation dynamics of spin waves in both sides of the DW. We observe the refraction and re ection of magnetosatatc spin waves at the 90-degree DW, and reveal their characteristics, such as negative refraction. The incident-angle dependence of the refraction angle is explained by the wavenumber conservation along the DW, same as the case of Snells law for light.

Snells law, which encompasses both refraction and total internal reflection (TIR), provides the foundation for ray optics and all lens-based instruments, from microscopes to telescopes. Refraction results when light crosses the interface between medi
a of different refractive index, the dimensionless number that captures how much a medium retards the propagation of light. In this work, we show that the motion of self-propelled particles moving across a drag discontinuity is governed by an analogous Snells law, allowing for swimmer ray optics. We derive a variant of Snells law for neutral swimmers moving across media of different viscosities. Just as the ratio of refractive indexes sets the path of a light ray, the ratio of viscosities is shown to determine the trajectories of swimmers. We find that the magnitude of refraction depends on the swimmers shape, specifically the aspect ratio, as analogous to the wavelength of light. This enables the demixing of a polymorphic, many-shaped, beam of swimmers into distinct monomorphic, single-shaped, beams through a viscosity prism. In turn, beams of monomorphic swimmers can be focused by spherical and gradient viscosity lenses. Completing the analogy, we show that the shape-dependence of the TIR critical angle can be used to create swimmer traps. Such analogies to ray optics suggest a universe of new devices for sorting, concentrating, and analyzing microscopic swimmers is possible.
Polarization, denoting the precession direction with respect to the background magnetization, is an intrinsic degree of freedom of spin wave. Using magnetic textures to control the spin wave polarization is fundamental and indispensable toward reprog
rammable polarization-based magnonics. Here, we show that due to the intrinsic cubic anisotropy, a $90^circ$ antiferromagnetic domain wall naturally acts as a spin wave retarder (wave-plate). Moreover, for a $90^circ$ domain wall pair developed by introducing a second domain in a homogenous antiferromagnetic wire, the sign of retarding effect can be flipped by simply switching the direction of the intermediate domain. The intimate connection between rich states of magnetic domains and the spin wave polarization in cubic anisotropic systems, offers new possibilities in constructing purely magnetic logic devices.
A quantum vortex dipole, comprised of a closely bound pair of vortices of equal strength with opposite circulation, is a spatially localized travelling excitation of a planar superfluid that carries linear momentum, suggesting a possible analogy with
ray optics. We investigate numerically and analytically the motion of a quantum vortex dipole incident upon a step-change in the background superfluid density of an otherwise uniform two-dimensional Bose-Einstein condensate. Due to the conservation of fluid momentum and energy, the incident and refracted angles of the dipole satisfy a relation analogous to Snells law, when crossing the interface between regions of different density. The predictions of the analogue Snells law relation are confirmed for a wide range of incident angles by systematic numerical simulations of the Gross-Piteavskii equation. Near the critical angle for total internal reflection, we identify a regime of anomalous Snells law behaviour where the finite size of the dipole causes transient capture by the interface. Remarkably, despite the extra complexity of the surface interaction, the incoming and outgoing dipole paths obey Snells law.
We present experiments on slow shear flow in a split-bottom linear shear cell, filled with layered granular materials. Shearing through two different materials separated by a flat material boundary is shown to give narrow shear zones, which refract a
t the material boundary in accordance with Snells law in optics. The shear zone is the one that minimizes the dissipation rate upon shearing, i.e.a manifestation of the principle of least dissipation. We have prepared the materials as to form a granular lens. Shearing through the lens is shown to give a very broad shear zone, which corresponds to fulfilling Snells law for a continuous range of paths through the cell.
We demonstrate current-induced displacement of ferromagnetic domain walls in sub-micrometer fabricated patterns of SrRuO3 films. The displacement, monitored by measuring the extraordinary Hall effect, is induced at zero applied magnetic field and its
direction is reversed when the current is reversed. We find that current density in the range of 10^9 - 10^10 A/m^2 is sufficient for domain-wall displacement when the depinning field varies between 50 to 500 Oe. These results indicate relatively high efficiency of the current in displacing domain walls which we believe is related to the narrow width ~3 nm of domain walls in this compound.
