  Measurements of ferromagnetic resonance (FMR) are pivotal to modern magnetism
and spintronics. Recently, we reported on the Ferris FMR technique, which
relies on large-amplitude modulation of the externally applied magnetic field.
It was shown to benefit from high sensitivity while being broadband. The Ferris
FMR also expanded the resonance linewidth such that the sensitivity to spin
currents was enhanced as well. Eventually, the spin Hall angle ({\theta}_SH)
was measurable even in wafer-level measurements that require low current
densities to reduce the Joule heating. Despite the various advantages, analysis
of the Ferris FMR response is limited to numerical modeling where the linewidth
depends on multiple factors such as the field modulation profile and the
magnetization saturation. Here, we describe in detail the basic principles of
operation of the Ferris FMR and discuss its applicability and engineering
considerations. We demonstrated these principles in a measurement of the
orbital Hall effect taking place in Cu, using an Au layer as the orbital to
spin current converter. This illustrates the potential of the Ferris FMR for
the future development of spintronics technology.
