abstract = {Extending the scope of the self-imaging phenomenon, traditionally associated with linear optics, to the domain of magnonics, this study presents the experimental demonstration and numerical analysis of spin-wave (SW) self-imaging in an in-plane magnetized yttrium iron garnet film. We explore this phenomenon using a setup in which a plane SW passes through a diffraction grating, and the resulting interference pattern is detected using Brillouin light scattering. We have varied the frequencies of the source dynamic magnetic field to discern the influence of the anisotropic dispersion relation and the caustic effect on the analyzed phenomenon. We found that at low frequencies and diffraction fields, the caustics determine the interference pattern. However, at large distances from the grating, when the waves of high diffraction order and number of slits contribute to the interference pattern, the self-imaging phenomenon and Talbot-like patterns are formed. This methodological approach not only sheds light on the behavior of SW interference under different conditions but also enhances our understanding of the SW self-imaging process in both isotropic and anisotropic media.},

abstract = {Controlling the vortex chirality in ferromagnetic nanodots and nanorings has been a topic of investigation for the last few years. Many control methods have been proposed and it has been found that the control is related to the breaking of the circular symmetry of the ring. In this paper, we present a theoretical study demonstrating the control of chirality in a symmetrical ferromagnetic nanoring by breaking the circular symmetry of the system by placing an elongated ferromagnetic nanoelement inside the ring. Here, the stray magnetostatic field exerted by the asymmetrically placed nanoelement determines the movement of the domain walls upon re-magnetization of the nanoring and the resulting chirality in remanence. Thus, the use of a nanoelement not only allows control of the chirality of the vortex state in an isolated ring, but also offers an opportunity to control magnetization in denser nanoring systems, as well as for spintronic and magnonic applications.},

abstract = {The research on the properties of spin waves (SWs) in three-dimensional nanosystems is an innovative idea in the field of magnonics. Mastering and understanding the nature of magnetization dynamics and binding of SWs at surfaces, edges, and in-volume parts of three-dimensional magnetic systems enables the discovery of alternative phenomena and suggests other possibilities for their use in magnonic and spintronic devices. In this work, we use numerical methods to study the effect of geometry and external magnetic field manipulations on the localization and dynamics of SWs in crescent-shaped (CS) waveguides. It is shown that changing the magnetic field direction in these waveguides breaks the symmetry and affects the localization of eigenmodes with respect to the static demagnetizing field. This, in turn, has a direct effect on their frequency. Furthermore, CS structures are found to be characterized by significant saturation at certain field orientations, resulting in a cylindrical magnetization distribution. Thus, we present chirality-based nonreciprocal dispersion relations for high-frequency SWs, which can be controlled by the field direction (shape symmetry) and its amplitude (saturation).},
