Abstrakt: Metamaterials provide compelling capabilities to manipulate electromagnetic waves beyond the natural materials and can dramatically enhance both their electric and magnetic fields. The enhanced magnetic fields, however, are far less utilized than the electric counterparts, despite their great potential in spintronics. In this work, we propose and experimentally demonstrate a hybrid perfect metamaterial absorbers which combine the artificial metal/insulator/metal (MIM) metamaterial with the natural ferromagnetic material permalloy (Py) and realize remarkably larger spin rectification effect. Magnetic hot spot of the MIM metamaterial improves considerably electromagnetic coupling with spins in the embedded Py stripes. With the whole hybridized structure being optimized based on coupled-mode theory, perfect absorption condition is approached and an approximately 190-fold enhancement of spin-rectifying photovoltage is experimentally demonstrated at the ferromagnetic resonance at 7.1 GHz. Our work provides an innovative solution to harvest microwave energy for spintronic applications, and opens the door to hybridized magnetism from artificial and natural magnetic materials for emergent applications such as efficient optospintronics, magnonic metamaterials and wireless energy transfer.
