Abstract

This letter reports the first detailed measurement of MzM_z, the component parallel to the effective field direction, when ferromagnets are excited by microwave fields at high power levels. It is found that MzM_z drops dramatically at the saturation of the main resonance. Simultaneous measurements of MzM_z and absorption power show that this drop corresponds to a diminution of the spin-lattice relaxation rate. These changes are interpreted as reflecting the properties of longitudinal spinwaves excited above Suhl's instability. Similar behavior should be expected in spinwave emission by currents.
