Interaction between microwave photon and spins means in other words, interaction between resonating photon in a closing space and spins. Thus, measuring spectra using a non-resonant device can prevent the Purcell effect or strong coupling from distortion of intrinsic spectra. Figure 1(a) is a drawing expressing a typical spectroscopy. A light source irradiates light to a sample, and transmitted light is detected. A simple and non-resonant wave guide, as shown in Fig.1(b), can provide absorption spectra of para- and ferromagnetic samples which have a high spin density.

Transmission FMR spectrum

Spectra in Fig.2 are an FMR spectra of YIG-thin film (20μm thickness, conf. Application Note ER200008E  ) using a detection device as shown in Fig.1(b). Merits of this method are that tuning of the filling factor and magnetic modulation are not necessary. Furthermore, dependence of FMR spectra on the frequencies is easily obtained. Application Note ER200010 will explain it more.
