We show that the line widths of the ferromagnetic resonance (FMR) spectrum depend on the thickness of the ferromagnetic metal layers, which must not be in resonance with the oscillating magnetic field. We also show that the penetration depths of the transverse spin current in ferromagnetic metals can be determined by analyzing the line widths of their FMR spectra. The obtained penetration depths in NiFe, CoFe and CoFeB were 3.7 [nm], 2.5 [nm] and 12.0 [nm], respectively.", "revisions": [ { "version": "v3", "updated": "2008-03-17T06:43:38.000Z" } ], "analyses": { "keywords": [ "transverse spin current", "penetration depth", "spin pumping", "determination", "line widths" ], "tags": [ "journal article" ], "publication": { "doi": "10.1143/APEX.1.031302", "journal": "Applied Physics Express", "year": 2008, "month": "Mar", "volume": 1, "number": 3, "pages": "031302" }, "note": { "typesetting": "TeX", "pages": 4, "language": "en", "license": "arXiv", "status": "editable", "adsabs": "2008APExp...1c1302T" } } }
