Tunable Magnonic Chern Bands and Chiral Spin Currents in Magnetic Multilayers
arXiv:2201.00312 · doi:10.1103/PhysRevLett.128.217201
Abstract
Realization of novel topological phases in magnonic band structures represents a new opportunity for the development of spintronics and magnonics with low power consumption. In this work, we show that in antiparallelly aligned magnetic multilayers, the long-range, chiral dipolar interaction generates bulk bands with non-zero Chern integers and magnonic surface states carrying chiral spin currents. The surface states are strictly localized and can be easily toggled between non-trivial and trivial phases through an external magnetic field. The realization of chiral surface spin currents in this dipolarly coupled heterostructure represents a magnonic implementation of the coupled wire model that has been extensively explored in electronic systems. Our work presents an easy-to-implement system for realizing topological magnonic surface states and low-dissipation spin current transport in a tunable manner.
