Optical registration of a coherent magnon state outside of the excitation region.

Magnons have demonstrated enormous potential for the next generation of information technology and quantum computing. In particular, the coherent state of magnons resulting from their Bose-Einstein condensation (mBEC) is of great interest. Typically, mBEC is formed in the magnon excitation region. Here we demonstrate for the first time by optical methods the permanent existence of mBEC at large distances from the magnon excitation region. The homogeneity of the mBEC phase is also demonstrated. The experiments were carried out on films of yttrium iron garnet magnetized perpendicular to the surface and at room temperature. We use the method described in this article to develop coherent magnonics and quantum logic devices.
