Nonlinear dynamics in an artificial feedback spin maser II: dependence on feedback configurations and time crystal effects

Year: 2026

Type: preprint

Abstract: Artificial feedback spin masers exhibit rich nonlinear dynamics, yet a systematic framework for understanding and controlling their behaviors remains elusive. In this paper, we consider the polarity and geometric configuration of the feedback field as important control parameters for studying the nonlinear dynamics of spin masers. By cooperatively tuning the strength and phase delay of feedback field, we investigate the spin dynamics at various configurations of the feedback field. Periodic, quasiperiodic and chaotic spin oscillations are uncovered. Specifically, a unique spin oscillation mode akin to the time crystal effects emerges within a certain parameter regime. This work presents a different viewpoint understanding the nonlinear dynamics of spin masers including the time crystal.
