For ferromagnetic layers separated by a nonmagnetic interlayer these effects give rise to a dynamic coupling between the layers that is dissipative in nature and affects the damping of coherent magnetization precession. We have used micromagnetic simulations to analyze the influence of such a dynamic coupling on the propagation of a laser-induced surface magnetostatic wave (MSW) packet in a pseudo spin valve structure consisting of two ferromagnetic metallic layers separated by a nonmagnetic metallic interlayer. We have considered the MSW generation due to laser-induced heating, which leads to dynamic changes in magnetization and magnetic anisotropy, and added the dynamic coupling effect to the equations for our micromagnetic simulations. As a result, we have revealed that under certain conditions such a coupling leads to a decrease in the spatial damping of the wave packet that corresponds to the acoustic MSW mode forming in the structure considered.</p>","PeriodicalId":629,"journal":{"name":"Journal of Experimental and Theoretical Physics","volume":"4 1","pages":""},"PeriodicalIF":1.1,"publicationDate":"2023-12-10","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"138564062","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":4,"RegionCategory":"物理与天体物理","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}
