Modified spin-wave theory of nuclear magnetic relaxation in one-dimensional quantum ferrimagnets: Three-magnon versus Raman processes
Shoji Yamamoto, Hiromitsu Hori
Abstract
Nuclear spin-lattice relaxation in one-dimensional Heisenberg ferrimagnets is studied by means of a modified spin-wave theory. Calculating beyond the first-order mechanism, where a nuclear spin directly interacts with spin waves through the hyperfine coupling, we demonstrate that the exchange-scattering-enhanced three-magnon nuclear relaxation may generally predominate over the Raman one with increasing temperature and decreasing field. Recent proton spin-lattice relaxation-time (T1) measurements on the ferrimagnetic chain compound NiCu(C7H6N2O6)(H2O)32H2O suggest that the major contribution to 1/T1 be made by the three-magnon scattering.
