Micro-focused Brillouin light scattering: imaging spin waves at the nanoscale

Spin waves constitute an important part of research in the field of magnetization dynamics. Spin waves are the elementary excitations of the spin system in a magnetically ordered material state and magnons are their quasi particles. In the following article, we will discuss the optical method of Bri...
