Popis: | Coherent conversion from microwave to optical wave opens new research avenues towards a long distance quantum network covering quantum communication, computing, and sensing out of the laboratory. Especially a multimode enabled system is essential for practical applications. Here we experimentally demonstrate coherent multimode conversion from the microwave to optical wave via collective spin excitation in a single crystal yttrium iron garnet (YIG, ${\mathrm{Y}}_{3}{\mathrm{Fe}}_{5}{\mathrm{O}}_{12}$) which is strongly coupled to a microwave cavity mode in a three-dimensional rectangular cavity. Expanding a collective spin excitation mode of our magnon-cavity hybrid system from Kittel to multimagnetostatic modes, we verify that the size of the YIG sphere predominantly plays a crucial role for the microwave-to-optical multimode conversion efficiency at resonant conditions. We also find that the coupling strength between multimagnetostatic modes and a cavity mode is manipulated by the position of a YIG inside the cavity. It is expected to be valuable for designing a magnon-hybrid system that can be used for coherent conversion between microwave and optical photons. |
