This work is focused on the behavior of a thermally generated magnon gas in artificial magnetization landscapes on the micrometer scale. A unique setup was created by combining microfocused Brillouin light scattering spectroscopy with a heating laser, which imprints two-dimensional temperature landscapes onto the yttrium-iron garnet film sample by phase-based wavefront modulation. The temperature change, regulated by the power of the optical intensity patterns, influences the saturation magnetization and shifts the magnon dispersion relation. It was demonstrated with both measurements and simulations, that in addition to the magnetization variations, it is necessary to consider the connected variations of the demagnetization field. The local temperature-dependent demagnetization field influences the dispersion relation in the opposite direction and affects different magnon modes diversely, leading to strong frequency shifts. This effect creates a powerful tool for the manipulation of magnon Bose-Einstein condensates as well as for the directional control of magnon supercurrents.
