Abstract

The effect of disorder on magnonic transport in low-dimensional magnetic materials is studied in the framework of a classical spin model. Numerical investigations give insight into scattering properties of the systems and show the existence of Anderson localization in one dimension and weak localization in two dimensions, potentially affecting the functionality of magnonic devices.
