Shear Thickness Modes in a Presence of Magnetoelastic Waves Parallel to a Surface Guided by Ferromagnetic Film

Abstract

Thickness modes of magnetoelastic waves (MEW) guided by ferromagnetic film have been investigated. Propagation of two mutually perpendicular MEW one of which is parallel to a normal to the surface has been considered. It has been shown that resonant frequencies of standing MEW depend on the wave number of a wave propagating along a surface. Plots illustrating dependence of thickness shear modes upon wave vector kz of MEW traveling in a surface plane have been presented.
