Triplet spin resonance of the Haldane compound with interchain coupling
Spin resonance absorption of the triplet excitations is studied
experimentally in the Haldane magnet PbNi2V2O8. The spectrum has features of
spin S=1 resonance in a crystal field, with all three components, corresponding
to transitions between spin sublevels, being observable. The resonance field is
temperature dependent, indicating the renormalization of excitation spectrum in
interaction between the triplets. Magnetic resonance frequencies and critical
fields of the magnetization curve are consistent with a boson version of the
macroscopic field theory [Affleck 1992, Farutin & Marchenko 2007], implying the
field induced ordering at the critical field, while contradict the previously
used approach of noninteracting spin chains.Comment: 7 pages, 9 figure
High-Field Low-Frequency Spin Dynamics
The theory of exchange symmetry of spin ordered states is extended to the
case of high magnetic field. Low frequency spin dynamics equation for
quasi-goldstone mode is derived for two cases of collinear and noncollinear
antiferromagnets.Comment: 2 page
Spin wave resonances in antiferromagnets
Spin wave resonances with enormously large wave numbers corresponding to wave
vectors 10^5-10^6 cm^{-1} are observed in thin plates of FeBO3. The study of
spin wave resonances allows one to obtain information about the spin wave
spectrum. The temperature dependence of a non-uniform exchange constant is
determined for FeBO3. Considerable softening of the magnon spectrum resulting
from the interaction of magnons, is observed at temperatures above 1/3 of the
Neel temperature. The excitation level of spin wave resonances is found to
depend significantly on the inhomogeneous elastic distortions artificially
created in the sample. A theoretical model to describe the observed effects is
proposed.Comment: 6 pages, 6 figure
Magnetic excitations in dipolar pyrochlore antiferromagnet GdSnO
The spin dynamics in the geometrically frustrated pyrochlore antiferromagnet
is studied by means of the electron spin resonance. In the
ordered phase ( K), we have detected three gapped resonance modes.
Their values agree well with the developed spin-wave theory which takes into
account the Heisenberg nearest-neighbor exchange, the single-ion anisotropy and
the long-range dipolar interactions. The theory also predicts a fourth
lowest-frequency gap, which lies beyond the experimental range of frequencies,
but determines the exponential decrease of the specific heat at low
temperature.Comment: 8 pages, 5 figure
Magnetic phase diagram of the frustrated S=1/2 chain magnet LiCu_2O_2
We present the results of the magnetization and dielectric constant
measurements on untwinned single crystal samples of the frustrated S=1/2 chain
cuprate LiCu_2O_2. Novel magnetic phase transitions were observed. A spin flop
transition of the spiral spin plane was observed for the field orientations
H||a,b. The second magnetic transition was observed at H~15 T for all three
principal field directions. This high field magnetic phase is discussed as a
collinear spin-modulated phase which is expected for an S=1/2 nearest-neighbor
ferromagnetic and next-nearest-neighbor antiferromagnetic chain system
