Setting up current-induced spin-wave Doppler shift experiments — •Linda Nesterov, Julian Straßburger, Johannes Demir, Karsten Rott, and Timo Kuschel — Universität Bielefeld, Germany

The coupling of coherent spin waves with incoherent spin transport, such as spin-polarized electrons, results in the transfer of angular momentum via spin-transfer torque, enabling the so-called spin-wave Doppler shift [1]. Our research aims to deepen the understanding of this fundamental process, which plays a significant role in the development of next-generation memory devices and other spintronic applications. Propagating spin-wave spectroscopy is used to detect a possible Doppler shift in spin waves generated by charge currents in a 20 nm thick Ni₈₁Fe₁₉ strip. The experiments are conducted using a vector network analyzer with both in-plane and out-of-plane magnetic fields applied perpendicular to the direction of the propagating spin wave, which is excited with the use of a coplanar waveguide design. In contrast to published works [1,2], this study uses Ta₂O₅ as an insulating material, chosen for its high permittivity, leading to a different impedance matching within the system.
