Vertex Dependent Dynamic Response of a Connected Kagome Artificial Spin Ice

Abstract

We present the dynamic response of a connected Kagome artificial spin ice with emphasis on the effect of the vertex magnetization configuration on the mode characteristics. We use broadband ferromagnetic resonance (FMR) spectroscopy and micromagnetic simulations to identify and characterize resonant modes. We find the mode frequencies of elongated, single-domain film segments not only depend on the orientation of their easy-axis with respect to the applied magnetic field, but also depend on the vertex magnetization configuration, which suggests control over the FMR mode can be accomplished by altering the vertex magnetization. Moreover, we study differences between the vertex center mode (VCM) and the localized domain wall (LDW) mode. We show that the LDW mode acts as a signature of the domain wall (DW) nucleation process and the DW dynamics active during segment reversal events. The results show the VCM and LDW modes can be controlled using a field protocol, which has important implications for applications in magnonic and spintronic devices.
