Abstract
Rigidity of an ordered phase in condensed matter results in collective excitation modes spatially extending to macroscopic dimensions. A magnon is a quantum of such collective excitation modes in ordered spin systems. Here, we demonstrate the coherent coupling between a single-magnon excitation in a millimeter-sized ferromagnetic sphere and a superconducting qubit, with the interaction mediated by the virtual photon excitation in a microwave cavity. We obtain the coupling strength far exceeding the damping rates, thus bringing the hybrid system into the strong coupling regime. Furthermore, we use a parametric drive to realize a tunable magnon-qubit coupling scheme. Our approach provides a versatile tool for quantum control and measurement of the magnon excitations and may lead to advances in quantum information processing.

Magnon dark modes and gradient memory.

TL;DR: It is demonstrated that by dissipation engineering, a non-Markovian interaction dynamics between the magnon and the microwave cavity photon can be achieved, which enables a magnon gradient memory to store information in the Magnon dark modes, which decouple from the microwave cavities and thus preserve a long lifetime.
