This week’s image of the week is a typical spectral map with a set of lines of spectra for exchange spin waves, both in coordinates kAa, kBa. The image is taken from the article “Formation of the band spectrum of spin waves in 1D magnonic crystals with different types of interfacial boundary conditions, from the latest JPhysD special issue on magnonics.
A full description is given in the article, available now on IOPscience.
