← ScienceWhich phenomenon inhibits spin excitation in a ferromagnet?
A)Dipole-dipole line broadening by anisotropy✓
B)Magnon-phonon avoided level crossing
C)Magnetic flux domain wall propagation
D)Thermal population band occupation change
💡 Explanation
Dipole-dipole broadening inhibits propagating spin waves, because the local field becomes inhomogeneous, which scatters spin waves and shortens their life; therefore dipole-dipole interactions broaden the line, rather than mechanisms relying on lattice vibrations or domain boundaries.
