Abstract We demonstrate the possibility of controlling dipole spin-wave coupling in the lateral array of ferromagnetic stripes using local strains. Lateral system of magnonic stripes with a piezoelectric layer is fabricated and tested with microwave and Brillouin light scattering spectroscopy. The mechanisms of controlling the dipole coupling of spin waves by elastic strains localized in the region of maximums of the electric field strength are revealed. It is shown that when the absolute value and sign of the electric field are changed, it is possible to effectively control the properties of the propagating spin waves and the spatial distribution of the intensity of the dynamic magnetization in the lateral structure. We emphasize that the spin-wave intermodal coupling can be tuned with the external electric field in the adjacent magnonic stripes. Formation of channel for spin-wave edge mode propagation is observed experimentally in the vicinity of the gap between adjacent stripes. Effective control of the spin-wave coupling by changing the gap is demonstrated. From an applied point of view, the results can be used in information processing devices with electric and magnetic field tunability.
