Abstract

With the recent development in nanoscale patterning techniques, the potential of practical applications of nanometer-size structures for signal processing has been growing continuously. Experimental findings on the manipulation of optical signals in nanostructures have recently given rise to a widely addressed scientific area—subwavelength nano-optics. Here, we demonstrate that spin waves in microscopic ferromagnetic film structures represent a superb object for realization of the principles of nano-optics in the microwave frequency range. We show experimentally that by using the unique properties of spin waves, one can easily channelize, split, and manipulate submicrometer-width spin-wave beams propagating in microscopic magnetic-film waveguides.
