Realization and imaging of superconducting spin-wave optics
Spin waves are collective excitations of the spins in magnetic materials. They play a central role in the thermodynamics of magnets and are promising signal carriers in classical and quantum information devices. Spin waves offer non-reciprocal transport, low damping, microscale wavelengths at microwave frequencies, and strong interactions that enable signal conversion. As such, spin waves have raised the hopes of enabling information technology with functionalities and efficiencies beyond those provided by non-interacting particles. A key requirement is realizing efficient, low-damping spin-wave control. A potentially ground-breaking but virtually unexplored method is provided by…
