摘要
We report electric detection of ferromagnetic resonance (FMR) in epitaxially grown single crystal iron film through microwave photovoltage generation technique. The experimental results agree well with the established theory about FMR in iron films, showing excellent extendability of such a technique onto different ferromagnets as an effective way to study magnetocrystalline anisotropy and spin excitations. Furthermore, the information about the phase of magnetization precession is implicated in the lineshape of photovoltage, which makes it possible to probe in details into magnetic phase dynamics that is of significance for devising spintronic devices.
