Spin wave resonances in antiferromagnets
Abstract
Spin wave resonances with enormously large wave numbers corresponding to wave vectors 105-106 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.
