Abstract
We simulate spin wave (SW) dynamics in a thin film antidot magnonic crystal (MC) with a ring defect. An external magnetic field is applied perpendicular to the film plane in a forward volume configuration. We initially use the plane wave method to obtain the SW band diagram for the antidot MC structure (without the defect), which gives us an idea of modes that are trapped in the crystal. We then use finite element micromagnetic simulations to study the SW propagation in the MC with the ring defect. The power spectral density of the magnetization at the top of the ring shows peaks that fall within the band gap of the MC. The SW energy in other frequency components is dissipated in the MC and do not reach the other end of the ring.
