Backward volume magnetostatic spin wave interference in ferromagnetic cross is explored. Spin waves are excited at the two input arms of the cross, interference signal amplitude, and phase are detected in the other two, output arms of the cross. Spin wave scattering defines the out of phase interference in the output arms of the cross: the constructive (destructive) interference is observed at different input wave phase shifts in different output arms of the cross. Numeric simulations are in a good agreement with experiment. Based on the observed interference, we propose the cross junction spin wave logic device that operates as an OR or NOR logic gates. Spin wave phase represents the logic information. Destructive and constructive interference in the cross center determines the phase of the device output.
