Experimental results on investigation of magnonic crystals arising at surface acoustic wave (SAW) propagation in yttrium iron garnet as an artificial structure for surface magnetostatic waves propagation are presented. Tuning of magnonic gap frequency and gap depth were obtained by changing frequency and intensity of SAW that was explained in the frame of inelastic scattering of magnetostatic waves by SAW. Such tuning was shown can compensate drift of parameters due to possible change of temperature when using magnonic crystals as very sensitive magnetic field sensors. Suggested magnonic crystals are promising also for signal processing in GHz range.
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.
