In this work, we overcome such limitations by demonstrating SW propagation in Pt/Co multilayers at a remanent state controlled by stripe domain patterns, using Brillouin light scattering and micromagnetic simulations.

We investigate the phenomenon of coupling of modes and, as a consequence, their hybridization. By taking advantage of the fact that compressing the crystal structure along the direction of the external magnetic field leads to an enhancement of the demagnetizing field, we analyse its effect on the frequency shift of individual modes depending on their concentration in Co. We show that the consequence of this enhancement is a shift in the coupling of modes towards higher magnetic fields.

Here we propose how to overcome these obstacles and cool vibrational networks by simply harnessing the power of an exceptional point (EP) induced in parity-time symmetric structures; and we reveal its exceptional cooling properties otherwise unachievable in conventional devices. In stark contrast to standard-cooling protocols, a three orders-of-magnitude amplification in net cooling rates arises from the EP-cooling mechanism, without which it vanishes. Remarkably, our EP cooling is nearly immune to both resonator mass and environmental temperature, and this overthrows the consensus that poor intrinsic factors and rugged extrinsic environment suppress cooling channels.
