Influence of parametric instability on spin pumping by dipole-exchange magnetostatic surface waves in YIG-pt structures

The purpose of this work is to study the influence of four-magnon (4M) parametric instability on spin pumping by dipole-exchange magnetostatic surface waves (MSSW) with the help of the inverse spin Hall effect (ISHE) in structures based on yttrium-iron garnet (YIG) and platinum (Pt). Methods. The experiments were carried out using the delay line structures based on YIG(900 nm)/Pt(9 nm) where electromotive force (EMF) induced by ISHE demonstrates a growth at the frequencies of the resonant interaction between MSSW and volume exchange modes. The frequency dependencies of the amplitude and phase for the delay line structure and EMF (U(f)) from the platinum layer were studied as a function of the MSSW power. Results. It was shown that the resonant EMF growth at the frequencies of dipole-exchange resonances is caused by the presence of Van Hove singularities in the density of states for spin waves at such frequencies that leads to an increase in a "smoothing" of resonant particularities in the EMF frequency dependence U(f) that can be explained by decreasing efficiency of spin pumping due to destruction of dipole-exchange resonances and related singularities in the density of states of spin waves. Conclusion. Obtained results may be of interest for the development of highly sensitive spin current detectors, as well as for the implementation of spintronic devices.
