We present a detailed study of the spin-wave dynamics in single Pt/Co/W and double Pt/Co/W/Co/Pt ferromagnetic layer systems. The dispersion of spin waves was measured by wave-vector-resolved Brillouin light scattering spectroscopy while the in-plane and out-of-plane magnetization curves were measured by alternating gradient field magnetometry. The interfacial Dzyaloshinskii-Moriya interaction induced nonreciprocal dispersion relation was demonstrated for both single and double ferromagnetic layers and explicated by numerical simulations and theoretical formulas. The results indicate the crucial role of the order of layers deposition on the magnetic parameters. A significant difference between the perpendicular magnetic anisotropy constant in double ferromagnetic layer systems conduces to the decline of the interlayer interactions and different dispersion relations for the spin-wave modes. Our study provides a significant contribution to the realization of the multifunctional nonreciprocal magnonic devices based on ultrathin ferromagnetic/heavy-metal layer systems.     «
