Magnons in ferrimagnetic insulators such as yttrium iron garnet (YIG) have recently emerged as promising candidates for coherent information processing in microwave circuits. Here we demonstrate optical whispering gallery modes of a YIG sphere interrogated by a silicon nitride photonic waveguide, with quality factors approaching 10^6 in the telecom c band after surface treatments. Moreover, in contrast to conventional Faraday setups, this implement allows an input photon polarized colinearly to the magnetization to be scattered to a sideband mode of orthogonal polarization. This Brillouin scattering process is enhanced through triply resonant magnon, pump, and signal photon modes within an "optomagnonic cavity. " Our results show the potential use of magnons for mediating microwave-to-optical carrier conversion.
