Abstract
We demonstrate the pumping of phonons by ferromagnetic resonance in a series of [Co(0.8nm)/Pd(1.5nm)]n multilayers (n=6, 11, 15, and 20) with strong magnon-phonon coupling and perpendicular magnetic anisotropy. The effect is shown using broadband ferromagnetic resonance over a range of temperatures (10-300 K), where a resonant damping enhancement is observed at frequencies where the phonons can form standing waves across the multilayer. The strength of this effect is enhanced by approximately a factor of 4 at 10 K compared to room temperature, which is anomalous in the sense that the temperature dependence of the magnon-phonon coupling predicts an enhancement that is less than a factor of 2. We conclude by explaining how the stronger-than-expected temperature dependence highlights the essential role of dynamic magnetization pinning in driving the phonons.
