Recently the field of cavity magnonics, a field focused on controlling the interaction between magnons and photons confined within microwave resonators, has drawn significant attention as it offers a platform for enabling advancements in quantum- and spin-based technologies. Here, we introduce excitation vector fields, whose polarisation and profile can be easily tuned in a two-port cavity setup, thus acting as an effective experimental dial to explore the coupled dynamics of cavity magnon-polaritons. Moreover, we develop theoretical models that accurately predict and reproduce the experimental results for any polarisation state and field profile within the cavity resonator. This versatile experimental platform offers a new avenue for controlling spin-photon interactions by manipulating the polarisation of excitation fields. By introducing real-time tunable parameters that control the polarisation state, our experiment delivers a mechanism to readily control the exchange of information between hybrid systems.
最近,腔磁子学领域,即专注于控制局限在微波谐振器内的磁子与光子之间相互作用的领域,因其为基于量子和自旋的技术进步提供了一个平台而备受关注。在此,我们引入激发矢量场,其极化和分布在双端口腔设置中可轻松调节,从而充当探索腔磁子 - 极化激元耦合动力学的有效实验旋钮。此外,我们开发了理论模型,能准确预测并重现腔内谐振器内任何极化状态和场分布的实验结果。这个多功能实验平台通过操纵激发场的极化提供了一种控制自旋 - 光子相互作用的新途径。通过引入控制极化状态的实时可调参数,我们的实验提供了一种机制来轻松控制混合系统之间的信息交换。
