Ba. Kalinikos et al., PARAMETRIC FREQUENCY-CONVERSION WITH AMPLIFICATION OF A WEAK SPIN-WAVE IN A FERRITE FILM, IEEE transactions on magnetics, 34(4), 1998, pp. 1393-1395
We report on experiments of parametric frequency Conversion of a weak
signal spin wave by a co-propagating strong pump spin wave. An effecti
ve spin-wave frequency conversion with amplification occurred when the
carrier frequencies of the co-propagating waves were in the spectral
region of high negative dispersion in the dipole-exchange spin-wave sp
ectrum of the film. A theoretical explanation of the observed phenomen
on is given in terms of a four-wave parametric interaction process.
