Abstract

Some results of the study of 2D propagation of surface magnetostatic spin waves (SMSW) in dynamic magnonic crystals (DMC) created by a surface acoustic wave (SAW) in a structure with a yttrium-iron garnet (YIG) film are presented. Such studies are interesting from the practical point of view of creating real relatively complex devices on spin waves when they propagate in different directions, and not only in the 1D case. The methods of experimental research are presented, in particular, the features of the method of excitation of SAW in the structure that do not lead to the appearance of additional magnetic anisotropy in it, a method for measuring the angular dependencies of SMSW using mobile antenna–probes is presented. The angular dependences of the magnonic band gap frequencies are measured. It is established that the transmission bands with the transformation of the reflected SMSW into other types of magnetostatic waves (MSW) exist at any angle values, while the intervals in which there are no SMSW transformations during reflections occur in a certain narrower range of angles. The angles of the directions of the wave vectors and the Poynting vector of the reflected SMSW were also measured. A satisfactory agreement was obtained with the calculation performed using the method of isofrequency curves and the laws of inelastic scattering SMSW on SAW.
