Cavity Magnonics

Silvia Viola Kusminskiy

Cavity Magnonics studies the coherent coupling of light to collective magnetic excitations in solid state systems. In the microwave (MW) regime, a magnetic element is embedded in a MW cavity, whereas in the optical regime the magnetic material can be also used as an optical cavity if patterned appropriately. This not only enhances the magnon-photon coupling (making these systems promising for applications in quantum technologies) but also allows studying coherent light-matter interaction in a novel platform. In my talk I will go over the basics of cavity magnonics and present results on recent theory developments in my group.
