摘要
We have studied experimentally the radiation of spin waves from a permalloy-film microwaveguide into a continuous permalloy film. We show that due to a strong mismatch of the spin-wave spectrum caused by a variation in the demagnetizing field at the interface between the waveguide and the film, a frequency interval exists, where spin waves experience total reflection from the junction penetrating into the permalloy film in a tunnelinglike manner. At frequencies above this interval, complex frequency-dependent radiation patterns were observed characterized by a preferential radiation direction appearing due to the intrinsic anisotropy of the spin-wave dispersion characteristics in the film.
