Macrospin Tunneling and Magnetopolaritons with Nanomechanical Interference

preprint2011arXivOpen access

Abstract

We theoretically address the quantum dynamics of a nanomechanical resonator coupled to the macrospin of a magnetic nanoparticle by both instanton and perturbative approaches. We demonstrate suppression of the tunneling between opposite magnetizations by nanomechanical interference. By approximating the macrospin as a two-level system, we describe magnetopolaritons and their destruction by interference. The predictions can be verified experimentally by a molecular magnet attached to a nanomechanical bridge.
