Zusammenfassung der Projektergebnisse

This project is devoted to the study of of various fundamental nonlinear spin-wave phenomena, including generation of spin-wave single- and multi-solitonic wavepackets with controllable shape, synchronization of spin-wave chaotic oscillations in active rings based on ferromagnetic films and multiferroic layered structures, as well as nonlinear spin-wave modes in metallic magnetic microand nanosystems with low damping confined in the two lateral dimensions driven by spin currents. A simultaneous study of both active and passive magnetic systems allows us a comprehensive investigation of a wide variety of effects that belong to the most modern directions of magnetism. The main achievement of the project is the demonstration of the route to control chaotic dynamics in active rings based on nonlinear spin waves, including fractal spin-wave solitons as well as amplification and excitation of spin waves by both parametric pumping and injection of pure spin current. This achievement enabled the development of novel electrically-controlled macro- and nano-size microwave oscillators as well as spin-wave logic gates which are of great importance for modern spin-based communication and signal-processing technologies, including image recognition, cryptography, and neuromorphic computing. In the course of the project implementation, we have also studied different propagation of spin waves in thermal gradients and introduced novel low-damping magnetic materials.
