Abstract
Spin-wave frequency discretization has been observed by Brillouin light scattering in an array of tangentially magnetized 800 nm x 550 nm Ni81Fe19 rectangular prisms with thicknesses of 30 nm and dot separations of 200 nm. For a large wave vector interval, several discrete dispersionless modes were observed. The experimental frequencies were compared to those calculated using a recently developed analytical model for flat uniformly magnetized rectangular prisms. The agreement between the experimental and calculated frequencies is very good. In addition to the above mentioned modes, a low frequency mode was experimentally detected over a wide range of transferred wave vectors. Finally, the decrease in frequency of the first perpendicular standing spin-wave mode, observed in the patterned sample with respect to in the continuous film, was successfully reproduced.I documenti in SFERA sono protetti da copyright e tutti i diritti sono riservati, salvo diversa indicazione.
