Abstract
A new type of multiferroic heterostructure has been proposed in this work with strong electric field tuning of magnetism. It is composed of a self-biased magnetic layered structure with perpendicular magnetic anisotropy (PMA) and one piezoelectric substrate. Two configurations were investigated by a modeling approach, Ni/Ni/Ni/PMN-PT with Cu as spacer and Terfenol-D/CoFeB/Ni/PMN-PT. Magnetic multilayers at their resonance exhibit multiple absorption peaks from acoustic and optical modes of spin interaction between adjacent magnetic layers. A piezoelectric substrate transfers electric field induced strain to adjacent magnetic layer and thus shifts resonance frequencies of the multiferroic structure by tuning magnetic effective fields through magnetoelastic coupling. It has been demonstrated computationally that the resonance frequencies for the simulated structures could be up to 76 GHz under zero magnetic bias field. A larger tunability (> 100%) is achieved with applied electric field to the PMN-PT [011] substrate. Resonance mode selectivity is present in the configuration Terfenol-D/CoFeB/Ni/PMN-PT wherein one desired mode exhibits a much higher tunability compared to other modes. This enables the total mode number to be tuned by merging or diverging different modes under E-field.

Abstract
Collective spin excitations of ordered magnetic structures offer great potential for the development of novel spintronic devices. The present approach relies on micromagnetic models to explain the origins of dynamic modes observed by ferromagnetic resonance (FMR) studies, since experimental tools to directly reveal the origins of the complex dynamic behavior are lacking. Here we demonstrate a new approach which combines resonant magnetic X-ray diffraction with FMR, thereby allowing for a reconstruction of the real-space spin dynamics of the system. This new diffractive FMR technique builds on X-ray detected FMR that allows for element-selective dynamic studies, giving unique access to specific wave components of static and dynamic coupling in magnetic heterostructures. In combination with diffraction, FMR is elevated to the level of a modal spectroscopy technique, potentially opening new pathways for the development of spintronic devices.
