Abstract

The spectrum of localized excitations in an anisotropic one-dimensional ferromagnet containing a spin cluster of arbitrary size is found exactly within the framework of the discrete Takeno-Homma model. The boundaries of stability of spin nanoclusters are determined, depending on their size, and the exchange and the anisotropy parameter of the ferromagnet. The problem of the spin waves scattering against nanoclusters is solved and explicit analytical expressions for their reflection and transmission coefficients are obtained. A model of a metamaterial consisting of weakly interacting magnetic molecular nanoclusters and possessing revealed dynamic properties is proposed.
