Abstract:
We present high-frequency dynamics of magnetic nanostructure lattices, fabricated in the form of "artificial spin-ice", that possess magnetically frustrated states. Dynamics of such structures feature multiple resonance excitation that reveals rich and intriguing microwave characteristics, which are highly dependent on field-cycle history. Geometrical parameters such as dimensions and ferromagnetic layer thickness, which control the interplay of different demagnetizing factors, are found to play a pivotal role in governing the dynamics. Our findings are highlighted by the evolution of unique excitations pertaining to magnetic frustration, which are well supported by static magnetometry studies and micromagnetic simulations.
