Abstract
The linearity of the power response of yttrium iron garnet films to a microwave pulse having length shorter than the delay time characteristic of the specimen is investigated. In particular, a threshold is found above which output power increases with respect to standard linear trend. The above novel effect, analyzed in some detail on five epilayers of different thicknesses, cannot be explained in terms of usual nonlinear processes. An interpretation in terms of soliton excitation, accounting for the existence in the system of both intrinsic nonlinearity and dispersion, is proposed. © 1987 The American Physical Society.File in questo prodotto:
