Abstract
Magnonic crystals are structures with periodically varied magnetic properties that are used to control collective spin-wave excitations. With micromagnetic simulations, we study spin-wave spectra in a 2D antidot lattice based on a multilayered thin film with perpendicular magnetic anisotropy (PMA). We show that the modification of the PMA near the antidot edges introduces interesting changes to the spin-wave spectra, even in a fully saturated state. In particular, the spectra split into two types of excitations: bulk modes with amplitude concentrated in a homogeneous part of the antidot lattice and edge modes with an amplitude localized in the rims of reduced PMA at the antidot edges. Their dependence on the geometrical or material parameters is distinct, but at resonance conditions fulfilled, we found strong hybridization between bulk and radial edge modes. Interestingly, the hybridization between the fundamental modes in bulk and rim is of magnetostatic origin, but the exchange interactions determine the coupling between higher-order radial rim modes and the fundamental bulk mode of the antidot lattice.
