Junior Research Group Nanoscaled Magnonic Hybrids
Group leader: Jun.-Prof. Dr. Philipp Pirro
Scientific objectives
Spin waves, the elementary low energy excitations of an ordered spin system, and their bosonic quanta, magnons, carry energy and angular momentum in the form of spin. The field of magnonics aims to create devices for sensing, data processing and logic which are based on spin waves and their outstanding properties like intrinsic nonlinearity and nanometer wavelengths at GHz frequencies.
Our scientific aim is to explore and combine physical phenomena which can be used to realise novel magnonic hybrid systems with novel and superior characteristics. To achieve this goal, we investigate magnonics systems experimentally and using micromagnetic simulations with a special focus on:
