Electric-field tunable spin diode FMR in patterned PMN-PT/NiFe   structures
  Dynamic properties of NiFe thin films on PMN-PT piezoelectric substrate are investigated using the spin-diode method. Ferromagnetic resonance (FMR) spectra of microstrips with varying width are measured as a function of magnetic field and frequency. The FMR frequency is shown to depend on the electric field applied across the substrate, which induces strain in the NiFe layer. Electric field tunability of up to 100 MHz per 1 kV/cm is achieved. An analytical model based on total energy minimization and the LLG equation, with magnetostriction effect taken into account, is developed to explain the measured dynamics. Based on this model, conditions for strong electric-field tunable spin diode FMR in patterned NiFe/PMN-PT structures are derived.
