Popis: | A detailed analysis of the two magnon scattering contribution to the microwave relaxation and ferromagnetic resonance linewidth in isotropic and anisotropic films and disks has been made. The analysis is based on the Sparks, Loudon, and Kittel (SLK) theory for the scattering of uniform mode magnons into degenerate spin wave states for isotropic spherical samples in the presence of magnetic inhomogeneities in the form of spherical voids or pores. The SLK theory has been extended to include: (i) thin film and thick film samples magnetized in an oblique out-of-plane direction; (ii) uniaxially anisotropic materials with either easy-axis or easy-plane anisotropy and an anisotropy axis perpendicular to the disk plane; (iii) a modified density of degenerate states to account for the nonzero relaxation rate of the scattered spin waves; and (iv) two limiting cases of the scattering interaction: (a) the original SLK case where the inhomogeneities are modeled as spherical voids and the coupling to the degenerate spi... |
