Abstract
Magnon frequency comb (MFC), the spin-wave spectra composing of equidistant coherent peaks, is attracting much attention in magnonics. A terahertz (THz) MFC, combining the advantages of the THz and MFC technologies, is highly desired because it would significantly advance the MFC applications in ultrafast magnonic metrology, sensing, and communications. Here, we show that the THz MFC can be generated by nonlinear interactions between spin waves and skyrmions in antiferromagnets [Z. Jin \emph{et al}., \href{https://doi.org/10.48550/arXiv.2301.03211}{arXiv:2301.03211}]. It is found that the strength of the three-wave mixing between propagating magnons and breathing skyrmions follows a linear dependence on the driving frequency and the MFC signal can be observed over a broad driving frequency range. Our results extend the working frequency of MFC to the THz regime, which would have…
