It is found that three modulated energy gaps exist in the magnon energy band along Kx direction perpendicular to the superlattice plane. The spin quantum numbers and the interlayer exchange couplings all affect the three energy gaps. The magnon energy gaps of the four-layer ferromagnetic superlattice are different from those of the three-layer one. For the four-layer ferromagnetic superlattice, the disappearance of the magnon energy gaps Δω12, Δω23 and Δω34 all correlates with the symmetry of this system. The zero energy gap Δω23 correlates with the symmetry of interlayer exchange couplings, while the vanishing of the magnon energy gaps Δω12 and Δω34 corresponds to a translational symmetry of x-direction in the lattice. When the parameters of the system deviate from these symmetries, the three energy gaps will increase.展开更多
