Differentiated Strain-Control of Localized Magnetic Modes in Antidot Arrays

The control of localized magnetic modes has been obtained in Ni 60 Fe 40 square lattice (600 nm) antidot arrays. This has been performed by tailoring the magnetoelastic field at the scale of the antidot primitive cell. The corresponding heterogeneous strain field distributions have been generated by a PZT substrate and enhanced by the incorporation of a supporting compliant layer. It has been highlighted by a differentiated variation of magnetic energy directly due to the local magnetoelastic field felt by each magnetic mode, probed by ferromagnetic resonance spectroscopy. A modeling, involving micromagnetic simulations (to locate the magnetic modes), full-field simulations (to evaluate the strain field distributions), and an analytical model generally dedicated to continuous film that we have extended to those magnetic modes, shows a good agreement with the experimental data. This approach is very promising to develop multichannel systems with simultaneous and differentiated controlled frequencies in magnetic devices.
