Abstract
The interaction between phonons and magnons is a rapidly developing area of research, particularly in the field of acoustic spintronics. To discuss this interaction, it is necessary to observe two different waves (acoustic and spin waves) with the same frequency and wavelength. In the Ni80Fe20/Au/Co/Au system deposited on a silicon substrate, we observe the interaction between spin waves and surface acoustic waves using Brillouin light scattering spectroscopy. As a result, we can selectively control (activate or deactivate) the magnetoelastic interaction between the fundamental spin wave mode and surface acoustic waves. This is achieved by adjusting the magnetostrictive layer thickness in the multilayer. We demonstrate that by adjusting the number of layers in a multilayer structure, it is possible to precisely control the dispersion of surface acoustic waves while having minimal impact on the fundamental spin wave mode.
