Description

Spin waves, or magnons, are fundamental excitations in magnetic materials that provide insights into their dynamic properties and interactions. Magnons are the building blocks of magnonics, which offer promising perspectives for data storage, quantum computing, and communication technologies. These excitations are typically measured through inelastic neutron techniques, which involve heavy and time-consuming measurements, data processing, and analysis based on various theoretical models. Here, we introduce a machine-learning algorithm that integrates adaptive noise reduction and active-learning sampling, which enables the restoration from minimal inelastic neutron-scattering point data of spin-wave information and the accurate extraction of magnetic parameters, including hidden interactions. Our findings, benchmarked against the magnon spectra of CrSBr, significantly enhance the efficiency and accuracy in addressing complex and noisy experimental measurements. This advancement offers a powerful machine-learning tool for research in magnonics and spintronics, which can also be extended to other characterization techniques at large facilities.
