Magnonic crystals (MCs) are key components for spin wave manipulation. MCs realized with periodically metallized surfaces have an advantage in ease of the fabrication, but the effect of the metal thickness has not been studied well. In this work, the metal thickness dependence on the transmission spectra of localized mode spin waves was investigated. The metal thickness over half of the skin depth was necessary to prevent strong attenuation of spin waves.
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
