High data rate spin-wave transmitter

Spin-wave devices have recently become a strong competitor in computing and information processing owing to their excellent energy efficiency. Researchers have explored magnons, the quanta of spin-waves, as an information carrier and significant progress has occurred in both excitation and computation. However, most transmission designs remain immature in terms of data rate and information complexity as they only utilize simple spin-wave pulses and suffer from signal distortion. In this work, using micromagnetic simulations, we demonstrate a spin-wave transmitter that operates reliably at a data rate of 4 Gbps over significant (multi-micron) distances with error rates as low as 10⁻¹⁴. Spin-wave amplitude is used to encode information. Carrier frequency and data rate are carefully chosen to restrict dispersion spreading, which is the main reason for signal distortion. We show that this device can be integrated into either pure-magnonic circuits or modern electronic networks. Our study reveals the potential for achieving an even higher data rate of 10 Gbps and also offers a comprehensive and logical methodology for performance tuning.
