| description | Yttrium iron garnet Y3Fe2(FeO4)3 (YIG) has a uniquely low magnetic damping for spin waves, which makes it a perfect material for magnonic devices. Spin waves typically exist in the microwave frequency range, and their wavelength can be decreased to the nanoscale. Their dispersion in YIG waveguides depends on the strength and orientation of the bias magnetic field. It may be possible to exploit YIG waveguides as field-controlled filters and delay lines. In this work, we describe combinatorial logic and memory devices to benefit YIG properties. An act of computation in the combinatorial device is associated with finding a route connecting the input and output ports. We present experimental data demonstrating the pathfinding in the active ring circuit with YIG waveguide. The ability to search in parallel through multiple paths is the most appealing property of combinatorial devices. Potentially, they may compete with quantum computers in functional throughput. |
