This phenomenon is now expected to be employed in a variety of devices for applications ranging from quantum communication to dark matter detection. To be successful, most of these applications require a vast control of the coupling strength, resulting in intensive efforts to understanding coupling by a variety of different approaches. Here, the electromagnetic properties of both resonator and magnetic samples are investigated to provide a comprehensive understanding of the coupling between these two systems. Because the coupling is a consequence of the excitation vector fields, which directly interact with magnetization dynamics, a highly accurate electromagnetic perturbation theory is employed that predicts the resonant hybrid mode frequencies for any field configuration within the cavity resonator. The coupling is shown to be strongly dependent not only on the excitation vector fields and sample’s magnetic properties but also on the sample’s shape. These findings are illustrated by applying the theoretical framework to two distinct experiments: a magnetic sphere placed in a three-dimensional resonator and a rectangular, magnetic prism placed in a two-dimensional resonator. The theory provides comprehensive understanding of the overall behavior of strongly coupled systems and it can be easily modified for a variety of other systems.]]> Mon 14 Nov 2022 16:16:50 AEDT ]]>
