Abstract

We experimentally demonstrate the generation of spin-wave frequency combs based on the nonlinear interaction of propagating spin waves in a microstructured waveguide. By means of time- and space-resolved Brillouin light scattering spectroscopy, we show that the simultaneous excitation of spin waves with different frequencies leads to a cascade of four-magnon scattering events, which ultimately results in well-defined frequency combs. Their spectral weight can be tuned by the choice of amplitude and frequency of the input signals. Furthermore, we introduce a model for stimulated four-magnon scattering, which describes the formation of spin-wave frequency combs in the frequency and time domain.
