Two-dimensional van der Waals material systems gained an increased interest in the field of spintronics, as they can maintain ferromagnetic order even down to the few monolayer regime. These materials naturally permit device miniaturization. An ideal test bed for new spintronics applications in the 2D limit is the ferromagnetic semiconductor Cr2Ge2Te6, where intrinsic ferromagnetism has been discovered for atomic bilayers [1].

We investigate the spin dynamics of thin exfoliated flakes (11 - 150 nm) of Cr2Ge2Te6, using superconducting lumped element resonators made of NbN. The flakes are transferred directly on top of several superconducting resonator structures, featuring resonance frequencies from 12 GHz to 18 GHz. We perform ferromagnetic resonance (FMR) at a temperature of 1.8 K and can easily resolve the response from the flakes, even down to a thickness of 11 nm. With our multi-resonator approach, can confirm a Kittel FMR behaviour for the full thickness range. The FMR data can very well be described with bulk values of the magnetic parameters.
