Neutron Brillouin scattering with pulsed spallation neutron source - spin-wave excitations from ferromagnetic powder samples -

Abstract

Neutron Brillouin scattering (NBS) method was developed using a pulsed spallation neutron source, and the feasibility of NBS was demonstrated by observing ferromagnetic spin waves in La0.8Sr0.2MnO3 and SrRuO3 powders. Gapless spin-wave excitations were observed in La0.8Sr0.2MnO3, which were continuously extended to the lower scattering vector Q from previous results using single crystals. The novel result is a well-defined quadratic Q dependence in the spin-wave dispersion curve with a large energy gap in SrRuO3 indicating robust spin-orbit coupling.
