Ground states and magnonics in orthogonally-coupled symmetric all-antiferromagnetic junctions
arXiv:2211.16063 · doi:10.1103/PhysRevB.107.094407
Abstract
In this work, the rich ground-state structure of orthogonally-coupled symmetric all-antiferromagnetic junctions with easy-plane anisotropy is reported. Spin reorientation process rather than the traditional spin flop (SF) occurs, resulting in a novel phase in which Néel vectors preserve the mirror-reflection symmetry (termed as ``MRS phase"). The phase transitions between SF and MRS phases can be either the first- or second-order. After disturbed by external stimuli, magnons with different parities emerge. For in-plane dc fields, no couplings between magnons occur. When dc fields become oblique, coherent couplings between magnons with opposite parity emerge, leading to anticrossings in resonance frequencies. However, self-hybridization among magnons with the same parity never happens. More interestingly, spin waves based on MRS phase are linearly polarized and their polarization directions can be fine controlled.
