Spin Wave Interference Detection via Inverse Spin Hall Effect
arXiv:2105.02979 · doi:10.1063/5.0055402
Abstract
In this letter, we present experimental data demonstrating spin wave interference detection using spin Hall effect (ISHE). Two coherent spin waves are excited in a yttrium-iron garnet (YIG) waveguide by continuous microwave signals. The initial phase difference between the spin waves is controlled by the external phase shifter. The ISHE voltage is detected at a distance of 2 mm and 4 mm away from the spin wave generating antennae by an attached Pt layer. Experimental data show ISHE voltage oscillation as a function of the phase difference between the two interfering spin waves. This experiment demonstrates an intriguing possibility of using ISHE in spin wave logic circuit converting spin wave phase into an electric signal
