We explore the spin dynamics process in ferromagnets driven by chirped THz fields, utilizing the spin dynamics model derived from the inertial Landau-Lifshitz-Gilbert equation. Our findings reveal a substantial enhancement in spin dynamics intensity, ranging from 15% to 20% when the sample is subjected to a chirped THz pulse. Additionally, it is observed that chirped THz fields have the capability to shift the peak of spin dynamics, with the variation dependent on the chirping time of the THz pulse.

The idea of pervasive computing is becoming a reality, but due to the inconvenience of carrying silicon-based entities and a lack of fine-grained sensing capabilities for human-computer interaction, it is difficult to ensure comfort, esthetics, and privacy in smart spaces. Motivated by the rapid developments in intelligent fabric technology in the post-Moore era, we propose a novel computing approach that creates a paradigm shift driven by fabric computing and advocate a new concept of non-chip sensing in living spaces.
