abstract = {Spintronics is based on the transport of information by the
spin of electronsrather than charge current so as to avoid
the Joule heat. Among it,magnons, as the most elementary
excitations in magnetic materials, haveemerged as a
prominent tool in electrical and thermal manipulation
andtransport of spin. Importantly, magnonics as a field is
considered as one ofthe pillars of modern spintronics.In
this thesis, the linear spin-wave theory is utilized to
explore the magnonicproperties based on the effective spin
Hamiltonian, parameterizedfrom the first-principles
calculations and fitting to experiments. Inspired bythe
experimental result, a family of two-dimensional
metal-organic frameworkswith the Shastry-Sutherland lattice
are calculated from first-principles,and corresponding
applications in spintronics and magnonics are investigatedin
the thesis. Additionally, combined with inelastic neutron
scatteringresults, the magnonic topological properties are
systematically exploredin the multiferroic ferrimagnet
Cu2OSeO3. The experimental magnon dispersionsare well
fitted, when considering the Heisenberg-Dzyaloshinsky-Moriya
interaction model, and the Weyl points are forecasted whose
positioncan be controlled by changing the
Dzyaloshinsky-Moriya interaction ofthe material. Moreover, a
measurable thermal Hall conductivity is predicted,which can
be associated with the emergence of the Weyl points.Notably,
in realistic two-dimensional materials, e.g., ferromagnetic
honeycombmaterials, the Dzyloshinskii-Moriya interaction is
often accompaniedby the Kitaev interaction, which poses a
challenge to distinguish theirmagnitude. In the thesis, we
demonstrate that it can be done by accessingmagnonic
transport properties and rotating the magnetization in the
system.By studying honeycomb ferromagnets that exhibit at
the same time theDzyaloshinskii-Moriya interaction and
Kitaev interaction, complex magnonictopological properties
are revealed accompanied by intricate magnonic
transportcharacteristics represented by thermal Hall and
magnon Nernst effects.Moreover, the effect of a in-plane
magnetic field is investigated, showingthat it can break the
symmetry of the system and bring drastic modificationsto
magnonic topological transport properties, serving as
hallmarks of therelative strength for anisotropic exchange
interactions. Furthermore, basedon our proposed strategy,
the spin interactions in CrSiTe3 and CrGeTe3 arepredicted
and their potential applications in topological magnonics
are explored.},
