Magnetic domain walls are promising candidates for flexible and reconfigurable waveguides in magnonic circuitry [1,2,3]. We investigate spin-wave transport along 90∘ Néel walls in microstructured thin-film elements made of Py as well as Fe [4] by µBLS [5] and via micromagnetic simulations [6]. The experiments cover the range from thermal excitation, through the linear regime up to non-linear excitation and higher harmonic generation associated with the excitation of previously not observed guided spin-wave modes. Additionally, first experimental observations of spin-wave transport along interconnected Néel walls in flux closure domain structures and along walls, which suddenly change their direction at the edge of the microstructure are presented.
