abstract
We investigated the interaction of surface acoustic waves and spin waves with spatial resolution by micro-focused Brillouin light scattering spectroscopy in a Co$_{40}$Fe$_{40}$B$_{20}$ ferromagnetic layer on a LiNbO$_{3}$-piezoelectric substrate. We experimentally demonstrate that the magnetoelastic excitation of magnons by phonons is coherent by studying the interfering BLS-signals of the phonons and magnons during their conversion process.We find a pronounced spatial dependence of the phonon annihilation and magnon excitation which we map as a function of the magnetic field. The coupling efficiency of the surface acoustic waves (SAWs) and the spin waves (SWs) is characterized by a magnetic field dependent decay of the SAWs amplitude.
