Abstract
Time-resolved nonlinear optics are used to study the propagation of magnetic flux pulses in a 250 nm Permalloy film. The flux is generated in the film by coupling it to a coplanar waveguide structure driven with broadband voltage pulses. Flux pulses propagated in the film with a phase velocity of 4.2 × 10 5 m/s and a group velocity of 1.5 × 105 n/s. Both velocities are consistent with the predictions of Damon-Eshbach theory for magnetostatic surface waves with 200-300 υm wavelengths. Within 100 υm of the excitation source, flux pulses decayed monotonically but with no measurable delay. © 2002 American Institute of Physics. [DOI:10.1063/1.1421040]Citation
