Resonantly Enhanced Phonon Transport by Magnon Pumping in a Ferromagnetic/Piezoelectric Bilayer

We report the first experimental observation of resonantly enhanced propagating phonon transport induced by magnon pumping in a ferromagnetic/piezoelectric bilayer. Surface acoustic waves (SAWs) generated in a 128$^{\circ}$ Y-cut LiNbO$_3$ delay-line device resonantly excite magnetization dynamics in an adjacent Co film through magnetoelastic coupling. The enhancement of the transmitted acoustic signal occurs exclusively when the SAW frequency satisfies the ferromagnetic resonance condition predicted by the Kittel dispersion, providing a direct experimental fingerprint of resonant magnon-phonon coupling. A systematic comparison between the Co/LiNbO$_3$ bilayer and the bare LiNbO$_3$ substrate demonstrates that the observed transmission enhancement originates solely from the dynamic interaction between propagating phonons and coherent magnetization precession. Furthermore, measurements performed at different SAW harmonics reveal that only the harmonic satisfying the FMR condition produces a measurable enhancement, confirming the frequency-selective nature of the phenomenon. These findings establish an efficient mechanism for transferring energy from magnons to propagating phonons and provide a new strategy for actively controlling coherent acoustic transport in hybrid spintronic, straintronic, and quantum phononic platforms.

Detecting a large magneto-optical shift in Py/NiO bilayers

Here, magneto-optical magnetometry measurements on Py/NiO bilayers reveal a pronounced magnetic-field-induced wavelength shift, demonstrating strong magneto-optical coupling in this antiferromagnetic system. A systematic and monotonic spectral shift of up to ~ 400 nm is observed as the applied magnetic field increases, saturating at higher fields. Quantitative analysis shows that the associated magneto-optical energy variation is on the order of 107 eV, comparable to the magnon energy scale in NiO. Owing to the large NiO thickness, the observed effect originates from magnons intrinsic to the antiferromagnetic NiO layer rather than from spin currents injected by the Py underlayer. These results provide direct experimental evidence for magnetic-field control of antiferromagnetic magnon energies via magneto-optical interactions, establishing Py/NiO bilayers as a promising platform for optically probing and manipulating antiferromagnetic spin dynamics.

Oscillating Magnetic Effect in BiFeO$_3$

The development of electric vehicles has led to a growing need for more efficient and environmentally friendly batteries. As a result, there is significant interest in researching new materials and techniques to enhance battery efficiency. One such material being explored is bismuth ferrite (BiFeO$_3$ or BFO), a perovskite with versatile properties. Researchers are particularly intrigued by the potential to control its antiferromagnetic magnetization using magnetic or electric fields. Here, a comprehensive analysis of BFO was conducted, with a focus on its behavior when subjected to oscillating magnetic fields. The research revealed that BFO is sensitive to the frequency and shape of these magnetic fields, leading to the discovery of a new effect related to the transmission of electromagnetic signals on its surface. This effect resulted in a significant increase in the power of the electromagnetic signal, representing a major technological breakthrough. According to the findings, this gain in power has not been observed in any system of this kind before. The study also demonstrated that BFO has the ability to detect magnetic fields through electrical output signals and vice versa, which is crucial for assessing the state and efficiency of batteries, thus contributing to significant advancements in energy storage technology.

Detecting magneto-optical interactions in nanostructures

Effects due to magneto-optical interactions are responsible for most of the phenomena discovered in optoelectronics and spintronics. Magneto-optical interactions can generate elementary excitations of the order of light-magnetic matter, which can flow under certain conditions. Here, we observe the intensities of magneto-optical interactions in hexagonal arrays of magnetic nanowires using experimental measurements and simulations. Nanowires of three materials (cobalt-Co, iron-Fe, and nickel-Ni) were electrodeposited on alumina membranes by the AC electrodeposition method. Our results reveal that the magneto-optical behavior can produce, under certain conditions, a kind of avalanche of magneto-optical interactions, which is dynamic. Such an observation shows the possibility of generating a magneto-optical current (spin-opto current).
