Abstract

Spin waves are studied intensively for their intriguing properties and potential use in future technology platforms for the transfer and processing of information and microwave signals. The development of devices and materials for spin-wave systems requires a lot of measurement time and effort, and thus increasing the measurement throughput by extending the instrumentation capabilities is of the essence. In this letter, we report on a new and straightforward approach to increase the measurement throughput by fully exploiting the wideband detection nature of the Brillouin light scattering technique in single-shot experiments using a white-noise RF generator.
