Achieving monolithic integration of nonreciprocal photonic devices on semiconductor
substrates has been long sought by the photonics research society. One way to achieve this …

For the realization of integrated nonreciprocal photonic devices for optical communication,
on-chip monolithic integration of magneto-optical materials onto silicon remains a challenge …

Magnetic nanostructures with nontrivial three-dimensional (3D) shapes enable complex
magnetization configurations and a wide variety of new phenomena. To date predominantly …

We report the epitaxial growth of high-quality μm-thick yttrium iron garnet (YIG) films on
yttrium aluminium garnet (YAG) substrates by pulsed laser deposition (PLD). The effects of …

Spin pumping (SP) and the spin Seebeck effect (SSE), two of the most common methods for
generating a pure spin current from ferromagnetic insulators, are considered to share similar …

This work is devoted to physical vapor deposition synthesis, and characterisation of bismuth
and lutetium-substituted ferrite-garnet thin-film materials for magneto-optic (MO) …

Yttrium iron garnet (YIG: Y3Fe5O12) is an ideal magnetic material with potential applications
in microwave and spintronic devices. A key prerequisite for seamless integration into current …

Growth of phase pure yttrium iron garnet (YIG) on silicon is a challenging task due to the
complexity of the Y-Fe-O phase diagram, and the lattice mismatch between Si and YIG. In …

Remarkable improvements in the magneto-optical properties of Zn1− xCoxO thin films were
achieved by post-growth hydrogen irradiation at temperatures of 400° C. Hydrogen …

We report on YIG film with small grain size (< 12 nm) that has the potential to be used in
microwave device application. The nanostructured film has been deposited on quartz …
