Ferromagnets (FMs) have been a key ingredient in information technology because it is easy to manipulate and read out the magnetization. Antiferromagnets (AFMs) have magnetic moments with alternating direction resulting in negligible magnetization. This gives them high processing and device downscaling features, but this also makes it challenging to manipulate and interact with the AFM order. This thesis studies this interaction with antiferromagnets. NiO AFM order has been read out by electrically injecting spin current via the spin Hall effect in thin heavy metal films. In DyFeO3, both Dy and Fe magnetic moments, their excitation and interaction have been probed. A magnetic field lifts the degeneracy of magnetic excitations with opposite magnon spin, allowing a spin current to be detected nonlocally. The AFM order and the generation of spin current can easily be controlled by an adjacent FM. Thereby, we show that AFMs have the potential to play an active role in spintronics.

This chapter describes an experiment on the inverse spin Hall effect (ISHE) induced by spin pumping. Spin pumping is the generation of spin currents as a result of magnetization M(t) precession; in a ferromagnetic/paramagnetic bilayer system, a conduction-electron spin current is pumped out of the ferromagnetic layer into the paramagnetic conduction layer in a ferromagnetic resonance condition. The sample used in the experiment is a Ni81Fe19/Pt bilayer film comprising a 10-nm-thick ferromagnetic Ni81Fe19layer and a 10-nm-thick paramagnetic Pt layer. For the measurement, the sample system is placed near the centre of a TE011 microwave cavity at which the magnetic-field component of the microwave mode is maximized while the electric-field component is minimized.

Two micromagnetic tools to study the spin dynamics are reviewed. Both approaches are based upon the so-called dynamical matrix method, a hybrid micromagnetic framework used to investigate the spin-wave normal modes of confined magnetic systems. The approach which was formulated first is the Hamiltonian-based dynamical matrix method. This method, used to investigate dynamic magnetic properties of conservative systems, was originally developed for studying spin excitations in isolated magnetic nanoparticles and it has been recently generalized to study the dynamics of periodic magnetic nanoparticles. The other one, the Lagrangian-based dynamical matrix method, was formulated as an extension of the previous one in order to include also dissipative effects. Such dissipative phenomena are associated not only to intrinsic but also to extrinsic damping caused by injection of a spin current in the form of spin-transfer torque. This method is very accurate in identifying spin modes that become unstable under the action of a spin current. The analytical development of the system of the linearized equations of motion leads to a complex generalized Hermitian eigenvalue problem in the Hamiltonian dynamical matrix method and to a non-Hermitian one in the Lagrangian approach. In both cases, such systems have to be solved numerically.
