Abstract
Purpose. Modern technologies in their development are increasingly in need of increasing the speed of processing and recording information. An alternative to semiconductor methods is magnetic memory based on changing magnetic moments. The speed of magnetization reversal is determined by the speed of motion of domain walls. The speed is maximum in weak ferromagnets. The purpose of this work is to study the effect of a magnetic wave generated by a moving domain wall on a longitudinal acoustic wave, taking into account the absorption of a magnetic wave in yttrium orthoferrite.Methods. The equation describing the effect of a magnetic wave generated by a moving domain wall on a longitudinal acoustic wave is solved using the following methods: the slowly varying amplitude method, the perturbation theory method, and the Lagrange method.Results. For an orthoferrite crystal, the contribution of the magnetic wave accompanying the motion of the domain wall in yttrium orthoferrite to the deformation of the amplitude of the longitudinal acoustic wave is calculated. This contribution in a bounded crystal, without taking into account the absorption of magnetic waves in the absence of the influence of acoustic waves on them, is of the order of 10-6 cm. In an unbounded crystal, the corresponding contribution, taking into account the absorption of magnetic waves, into the generation of longitudinal acoustic waves is of the order of magnitude 10-10 cm with a theoretical thickness of the domain wall D3 ≈ 10-6 cm.Conclusion. To study the mechanisms of the influence of a magnetic wave generated by a moving DW on a longitudinal acoustic wave, yttrium orthoferrite was taken. Since a weak ferromagnet is characterized by a significant increase in the magnetoelastic coupling when it overcomes the sound barrier. It is this circumstance that made it possible to experimentally observe the generation of elastic displacements by a moving domain wall. To develop devices for recording and processing information based on weak ferromagnets, it is necessary to fully investigate the mechanisms that affect the dynamics of a domain wall during its motion. Such a factor is the interaction of magnetic and acoustic waves with the domain wall, which can affect the quality of information processing. The evaluation of the contributions of these mechanisms can be used to develop the element base of devices for recording and processing information based on the magnetic memory of weak ferromagnets.
