Ferromagnetic resonance in glass-coated amorphous wires with the diameter of metallic core varying from 25 μm to 133 nm is investigated. The microwave frequencies of 49.1 and 69.7 GHz are used and static magnetic field is applied either parallel or perpendicular to the long wire axis. In agreement with theoretical predictions the resonance curves of submicron wires substantially differ from the curves of the bulk wires. Depending on the symmetry and intensity of microwave electric and magnetic fields in the sample vicinity the circumferential and/or dipolar resonance modes can be excited. In bulk wires the resonance fields of the two modes coincide. In submicron wires, however, their resonance fields differ, indicating the metallic character of the circumferential mode and the insulator character of the dipolar mode. In wires with diameters 717 and 869 nm radial standing spin wave resonances are observed in parallel field configuration. The experimental results for the parallel field configuration can be well explained by the rigorous theoretical model. From the fit of experimental data the exchange stiffness constant A = 8.2 10−12 J/m and perpendicular surface anisotropy constant Ks = 6 × 10−4 J/m2 are obtained. The resonance curves measured in the transversal field configuration can be well explained in the frame of the skin effect and quasistatic approximations for the bulk and submicron wires, respectively. In submicron wires, however, an additional resonance of unknown origin is observed at higher magnetic fields.
