Spatial–frequency selection of magnetostatic waves in a two-dimensional magnonic crystal lattice

Аннотация

Features of the propagation of magnetostatic waves in a tangentially magnetized magnonic crystal structure based on iron–yttrium garnet with a two-dimensional array of grooves on the surface are studied. Numerical simulation is performed by the finite element method and the dispersion characteristics and the spatial distribution of fields of eigenmodes of surface magnetostatic waves propagating in this structure are calculated. The characteristics of waves in the magnonic crystal structure are experimentally studied by means of Brillouin scattering. It is shown that the formation of waveguide channels is possible when the frequency of the input signal is close to the frequency of the band gap of the structure.
