Abstract

We have explored the magnon bistability in cavity–magnon system. The stationary solution of the Heisenberg–Langevin equation is obtained numerically and magnon profile is studied as function of different experimentally feasible system parameters. The magnon profile shows an anticlockwise hysteresis loop and the loop area increases with input power. The mean magnon number shows bistable nature. The Kittel mode can transit from one stable state to another stable state near two transition points. The threshold powers of transition and bistable region strongly depend on magnon dissipation rate, photon-magnon coupling strength, and Kerr nonlinear strength. This study confirms that bistable quantum states may supply a platform to describe bistability at macroscopic regime in nonlinear systems. This study may also be used in potential applications in magnetic spintronics.
