Dynamics in macroscopic spin ices

Congratulations to Lawrence who published his work on wave dynamics in a macroscopic artificial spin ice. In this work, we found the dispersion relation is the array as well as the impact of a domain boundary on the dynamics in Phys. Rev. Applied.

Upon nonlinear excitation, the mechano-magnetic waves can scatter into a localized mode at the domain boundary or domain wall.
