Spin and Charge Interconversion in Dirac-Semimetal Thin Films
We use spin torque ferromagnetic resonance and ferromagnetic-resonance-driven spin pumping to detect spin-charge interconversion at room temperature in heterostructure devices that interface an archetypal Dirac semimetal, Cd 3 As 2 , with a metallic ferromagnet, Ni 0.80 Fe 0.20 (permalloy). Angle-resolved photoemission directly reveals the Dirac-semimetal nature of the samples prior to device fabrication and high-resolution transmission electron microscopy is used to characterize the crystalline structure and the relevant heterointerfaces. We find that the spin-charge interconversion efficiency in Cd 3 As 2 /permalloy heterostructures is comparable to that in heavy metals and that it is enhanced by the presence of an interfacial oxide. Spin torque ferromagnetic resonance measurements reveal an in-plane spin polarization regardless of an oxidized or pristine interface. We discuss the underlying mechanisms for spin-charge interconversion by comparing our results with first principles calculations and conclude that extrinsic mechanisms dominate the observed phenomena. Our results indicate a need for caution in interpretations of spin-transport and spin-charge conversion experiments in Cd 3 As 2 devices that seek to invoke the role of topological Dirac and Fermi arc states.

Attenuation of Spin Precession in Manganite/Normal Metal Heterostructures
Abstract—Temperature dependence of attenuation of magnetic spin precession in two-layer structures with a Pt top layer based on a La{sub 0.7}Sr{sub 0.3}MnO{sub 3} (LSMO) epitaxial manganite film is studied by measuring the width of a ferromagnetic resonance (FMR) line. Ferromagnetic resonance in thin ferromagnetic manganite films is used for the creation of a spin current at the interface between the metallic and ferromagnetic layers. A significant increase in a width of a line in FMR spectrum in two-layer structures due to generation of a spin current, heterogeneity of a ferromagnetic layer, two-magnon scattering, and eddy current is discussed.

Acoustic spin pumping in magnetoelectric bulk acoustic wave resonator
We present the generation and detection of spin currents by using magnetoelastic resonance excitation in a magnetoelectric composite high overtone bulk acoustic wave (BAW) resonator (HBAR) formed by a Al-ZnO-Al-GGG-YIG-Pt structure. Transversal BAW drives magnetization oscillations in YIG film at a given resonant magnetic field, and the resonant magneto-elastic coupling establishes the spin-current generation at the Pt/YIG interface. Due to the inverse spin Hall effect (ISHE) this BAW-driven spin current is converted to a dc voltage in the Pt layer. The dependence of the measured voltage both on magnetic field and frequency has a resonant character. The voltage is determined by the acoustic power in HBAR and changes its sign upon magnetic field reversal. We compare the experimentally observed amplitudes of the ISHE electrical field achieved by our method and other approaches to spin current generation that use surface acoustic waves and microwave resonators for ferromagnetic resonance excitation, with the theoretically expected values.

Magnetic resonance in bilayers of ferrite and functionally graded piezoelectric
Highlights: • Ferromagnetic resonance in a ferrite-piezoelectric laminate is studied. • An electric field induced FMR line broadening results from bending the sample. • Ferrite layer between the two piezoelectric layers shows a large line broadening. - Abstract: The particular purpose of this paper is theoretical modeling of magnetoelectric interactions at the ferromagnetic resonance in a layered structure of a ferrite and a piezoelectric with through-thickness graded polarization. We show that using the functionally graded piezoelectric with through-thickness variation of polarization can lead to an electric field induced broadening of ferromagnetic resonance line. As an example, we consider the laminate based on the yttrium iron garnet layer which is placed between two lead zirconate titanate layers with different poling direction. The maximal ferromagnetic resonance line broadening of 9.3 Oe is obtained for the yttrium iron garnet to lead zirconate titanate layer thickness ratio of 1.7 at 9.3 GHz for E equal to 10 kV/cm.

Annealing effects on the microwave linewidth broadening of FeCuNbSiB ferromagnetic films
We systematically investigate the annealing effects on the microwave linewidth broadening of FeCuNbSiB ferromagnetic films with thickness of 100 nm. We correlate the non-uniform residual stress obtained from grazing incidence x-ray diffraction measurements with the ferromagnetic resonance (FMR) linewidth due to effective field inhomogeneities measured from broadband ferromagnetic resonance absorption measurements. We also estimate the annealing temperature effect on the Gilbert and two-magnon scattering contributions to the total ferromagnetic resonance FMR linewidth. We show that the effective field inhomogeneities constitute the main contribution to the microwave linewidth, while this contribution is related to the non-uniform residual stress in the films which is reduced by thermal annealing.

Microwave and millimeter wave dielectric permittivity and magnetic permeability of epsilon-gallium-iron-oxide nano-powders
In millimeter wave frequency range, hexagonal ferrites with high uniaxial anisotropic magnetic fields are used as absorbers. These ferrites include M-type barium ferrite (BaFe{sub 12}O{sub 19}) and strontium ferrite (SrFe{sub 12}O{sub 19}), which have natural ferromagnetic resonant frequency range from 40 GHz to 60 GHz. However, the higher frequency range lacks suitable materials that support the higher frequency ferromagnetic resonance. A series of gallium-substituted ε-iron oxides (ε-Ga{sub x}Fe{sub 2−x}O{sub 3}) are synthesized, which have ferromagnetic resonant frequencies appearing over the frequency range of 30 GHz to 150 GHz. The ε-Ga{sub x}Fe{sub 2−x}O{sub 3} is synthesized by the sol-gel method. The particle sizes are observed to be smaller than 100 nm. In this paper, in-waveguide transmission and reflection method and the free space magneto-optical approach have been employed to study these newly developed ε-Ga{sub x}Fe{sub 2−x}O{sub 3} particles in millimeter waves. These techniques enable to obtain precise transmission spectra to determine the dielectric and magnetic properties of both isotropic and anisotropic ferrites in the microwave and millimeter wave frequency range from single set of direct measurements. The complex dielectric permittivity and magnetic permeability spectra of ε-Ga{sub x}Fe{sub 2−x}O{sub 3} are shown in this paper. Strong ferromagnetic resonances at different frequencies determined by the x parameter are found.

Influence of the Magnetic Moment of the Probe of a Magnetic Resonance Force Microscope on the Spin-Wave Resonance Spectra
Abstract—The ferromagnetic resonance in an array of permalloy microstrips 3000 × 500 × 30 nm{sup 3} in size, which are ordered on a rectangular 3.5 × 6 μm{sup 2} lattice, is studied using magnetic resonance force microscopy with strong probe–sample interaction. This interaction induces intricate modifications of the observed spectra, which are manifested both in line splitting and in changes in shape. The dependences of the observed spectra on the sample–probe distance and the orientation of the magnetic moment of the probe are analyzed.

Dzyaloshinskii-Moriya domain wall resonance in ferromagnetic nanowires with a spin-transfer torque
We theoretically investigate the current-induced domain wall resonance in ferromagnetic nanowires with a Dzyaloshinskii-Moriya interaction. The adiabatic and nonadiabatic torques distort the wall's internal structure and exert a global pressure on the wall. An effective Newton's equation is obtained analytically for a domain wall moving in one-dimensional potential and subject to a viscous friction and a driving force. Our results demonstrate that the Dzyaloshinskii-Moriya interaction affects the critical current density for depinning the wall, resonance frequency, and amplitude.

Effect of the stresses caused by substrate on the electrical conductivity of ferromagnetic manganite lanthanum–barium films
This is a complex study of the electrophysical and magnetic characteristics of epitaxial manganite La{sub 0.7}Ba{sub 0.3}MnO{sub 3} (LBMO) films under conditions of crystal structure stresses caused by misfit in the lattice parameters of the LBMO crystal and a substrate. The substrate used had the lattice parameter smaller than that in the LBMO crystal. It is shown that the temperature dependence of the electrical resistance of the films at low temperatures is not dependent on the existence of stresses in the film and agrees well with the calculation with allowance made for the interaction of carriers with magnetic excitations in the presence of strongly correlated electronic states. The study of the ferromagnetic resonance line indicates an inhomogeneity of the ferromagnetic phase in the LBMO films and the increase in the ferromagnetic resonance line width with decreasing temperature.

Giant Anisotropy of Gilbert Damping in Epitaxial CoFe Films
Tailoring Gilbert damping of metallic ferromagnetic thin films is one of the central interests in spintronics applications. We report a giant Gilbert damping anisotropy in epitaxial ${\mathrm{Co}}_{50}{\mathrm{Fe}}_{50}$ thin films with a maximum-minimum damping ratio of 400%, determined by broadband spin-torque ferromagnetic resonance as well as inductive ferromagnetic resonance. We conclude that the origin of this damping anisotropy is the variation of the spin orbit coupling for different magnetization orientations in the cubic lattice, which is further corroborated from the magnitude of the anisotropic magnetoresistance in ${\mathrm{Co}}_{50}{\mathrm{Fe}}_{50}$.

Exponentially decaying magnetic coupling in sputtered thin film FeNi/Cu/FeCo trilayers
Magnetic coupling in trilayer films of FeNi/Cu/FeCo deposited on Si/SiO{sub 2} substrates have been studied. While the thicknesses of the FeNi and FeCo layers were kept constant at 100 Å, the thickness of the Cu spacer was varied from 5 to 50 Å. Both hysteresis loop and ferromagnetic resonance results indicate that all films are ferromagnetically coupled. Micromagnetic simulations well reproduce the ferromagnetic resonance mode positions measured by experiments, enabling the extraction of the coupling constants. Films with a thin Cu spacer are found to be strongly coupled, with an effective coupling constant of 3 erg/cm{sup 2} for the sample with a 5 Å Cu spacer. The strong coupling strength is qualitatively understood within the framework of a combined effect of Ruderman-Kittel-Kasuya-Yosida and pinhole coupling, which is evidenced by transmission electron microscopy analysis. The magnetic coupling constant surprisingly decreases exponentially with increasing Cu spacer thickness, without showing an oscillatory thickness dependence. This is partially connected to the substantial interfacial roughness that washes away the oscillation. The results have implications on the design of multilayers for spintronic applications.

Microscopic properties of degradation-free capped GdN thin films studied by electron spin resonance
The microscopic magnetic properties of high-quality GdN thin films have been investigated by electron spin resonance (ESR) and ferromagnetic resonance (FMR) measurements. Detailed temperature dependence ESR measurements have shown the existence of two ferromagnetic components at lower temperatures, which was not clear from the previous magnetization measurements. The temperature, where the resonance shift occurs for the major ferromagnetic component, seems to be consistent with the Curie temperature obtained from the previous magnetization measurement. On the other hand, the divergence of line width is observed around 57 K for the minor ferromagnetic component. The magnetic anisotropies of GdN thin films have been obtained by the analysis of FMR angular dependence observed at 4.2 K. Combining the X-ray diffraction results, the correlation between the magnetic anisotropies and the lattice constants is discussed.
