Magnetoresistive detection of spin waves
In condensed matter physics, a spin wave is a magnetic disturbance that propagates within a material. These collective excitations, also known as “magnons,” are oscillation modes of the spin lattice. It has recently been shown that these spin waves can be detected by coupling them to a magnetoresistive sensor operating at very high frequencies. Spin…
