Developing hybrid materials and structures for electromagnetic wave engineering has been a promising route towards novel functionalities and tunabilities in many modern applications. Despite its established success in engineering optical light and terahertz waves, the implementation of metaresonators operating in the microwave band is still emerging, especially the implementation of metaresonators that allow on-chip integration and size miniaturization, which is crucial for developing hybrid quantum systems in the microwave band. In this work, we present a microwave metaresonator consisting of split-ring and spiral resonators, and implement it for the investigation of photon-magnon coupling for hybrid magnonic applications. We observe broadened bandwidth of the split-ring modes augmented by the additional spiral resonator, and, by coupling the modes to a magnetic sample, the resultant photon-magnon coupling can be significantly enhanced by more than tenfold. Our work suggests that combinatorial, hybrid microwave resonators may be a promising approach towards future development and implementation of photon-magnon coupling in hybrid magnonic systems.
