Microwave magnetic dynamics in ferromagnetic metallic nanostructures lacking inversion symmetry

In this work we carried out systematic experimental and theoretical investigations of the ferromagnetic (FMR) response of quasi-two-dimensional magnetic nano-objects - microscopically long nanostripes made of ferromagentic metals. We were interested in the impact of the symmetries of this geometry on the FMR response. Three possible scenarios, from which the inversion symmetry break originated, were investigated:(1) from the shape of the stripe cross-section, (2) from the double-layer structure of the stripes with exchange coupling between the layers, and (3) from the single-side incidence of the microwave magnetic field on the plane of the nano-pattern. The latter scenario is characteristic of the stripline FMR configuration. It was found that the combined effect of the three symmetry breaks is much stronger than the impacts of each of these symmetry breaks separately.
