Field-induced transition from parallel to perpendicular parametric pumping for a microstrip transducer

Microstrip transducers used for the excitation of spin waves in magnetic films possess two characteristic properties: high spatial localization of the microwave magnetic field and the presence of field components parallel and perpendicular to the bias field. Here, the effects of these features on the process of parametric pumping are presented. By microwave measurements of the spin-wave instability threshold a transition from parallel pumping to perpendicular pumping at the critical field $H_{\rm c}$ with the minimal threshold is observed. This transition is accompanied by a sharp threshold increase above the critical field due to the spatial confinement of the pump region.
