The investigation of propagating spin waves in micron-sized metallic ferromagnetic structures is subject of different experimental studies due to their potential application in spin-wave logic devices. Using the amplitude and the phase of the spin waves, these devices may provide outstanding performance, especially when operated with multiple frequencies.
We present micro-magnetic simulations focused on the feasibility of micro-structured spin-wave logic elements as well as an experimental investigation of short wavelength spin waves. The controlled excitation and the propagation of those spin waves is essential for efficiently working spin-wave logic elements. To analyze the excitation spectrum we use phase resolved Brillouin Light Scattering Microscopy to observe the spin waves in single micro-structures. For these experiments, we excite spin waves using different kinds of microwave antennas which show geometry dependent excitation spectra. Our experimental and numeric investigations show that magnetic micro-structures are promising candidates for wave-logic based elements.
