Spin-Wave Optical Elements: Towards Spin-Wave Fourier Optics
Title Supplement
Published on arXiv
Abstract
We perform micromagnetic simulations to investigate the propagation of spin-wave beams through spin-wave optical elements. Despite spin-wave propagation in magnetic media being strongly anisotropic, we use axicons to excite spin-wave Bessel-Gaussian beams and gradient-index lenses to focus spin waves in analogy to conventional optics with light in isotropic media. Moreover, we demonstrate spin-wave Fourier optics using gradient-index lenses. These results contribute to the growing field of spin-wave optics.
