Abstract [en]

Reliable in situ control of spin wave (SW) excitation between localized and propagating SW modes is of great interest for both fundamental and applied spintronics and magnonics. While spin-transfer-torque-generated SWs can typically be tuned directly via the driving current, the frequency of the highest intensity SWs, achieved in the strongly self-localized magnetic droplet soliton, is virtually current independent, as the droplet frequency is given by the intrinsic material properties. Here, we demonstrate, using micromagnetic simulations, how the droplet frequency can be efficiently tuned by an applied voltage through the effect of electric field (E-field)-dependent perpendicular magnetic anisotropy (PMA). It is found that as the PMA decreases, the droplet begins to distort and eventually collapses to give way to propagating SWs. However, due to the geometrically confined structures, the radially propagating SWs are reflected by the periphery boundary of the sample, and then the forward and backward SWs superpose to produce a series of standing SWs. The node number of the standing SWs strongly depends on the sample size as well as the applied E field. These findings provide a deeper understanding of magnetic excitation properties, which will be helpful for designing advanced spintronic devices.
