Original Kurzfassung:
Utilizing ultrafast terahertz (THz) magnons, the quanta of collective magnetic excitations, as carriers may provide a promising alternative to overcome the problems associated with electrical losses in nanoelectronic devices and circuits. However, efficient excitation of propagating coherent THz magnons in magnonic nanowaveguides is an essential requirement for the development of such devices. Here, by growing ultrathin ferromagnetic nanostructures on a reconstructed surface, we create well-ordered periodic magnetic nanostripes. We demonstrate that such atomically architectured nanowaveguides not only provide a versatile platform for an efficient generation of THz magnons but also allow for their fast propagation. Our results reveal the complex nature of the spin dynamics within such designed nanowaveguides and pave the way for designing ultrafast magnon-based logic devices with THz operation frequencies.
