Abstract :
In this paper we study the coupling mechanism between the conduction electrons and the allowed spin wave modes of a micron size system. To achieve this goal we investigate the variation of the giant magneto resistance (GMR) effect in a single spin valve sensor as a function of the spin wave mode excited in the system. We couple ferromagnetic resonance technique on a single sensor with transport measurements to probe at the same time the spin dynamics of the magnetic multilayer and his GMR response.
