Normal modes of a spin cycloid or helix

Abstract: Although spin cycloids and helices are quite common, remarkably little is known about the normal modes of a spin cycloid or helix with finite length on a discrete lattice. Based on simple onedimensional lattice models, we numerically evaluate the normal modes of a spin cycloid or helix produced by either Dzyaloshinskii-Moriya (DM) or competing exchange (CE) interactions. The normal modes depend on the type of interaction and on whether the nearest-neighbor exchange is antiferromagnetic (AF) or ferromagnetic (F… Show more

“…The spin configuration for a = 0.55 in Fig. 3(b) is shown in 3(d), which clearly exhibits cycloidal correlations on the xy-plane similar to those found in different systems [42]. Despite the small size (L = 14) of the chains shown so far, they exhibit the main features of larger systems in this regime.…”

“…where V 0 is a constant, a is the lattice parameter, J is the exchange constant, and n n is the direction vector, oriented along one of the <100> crystallographic axes. Here, we used an assumption that the Heisenberg exchange constant remains unchanged, which is a commonly used approximation for multiferroic BiFeO 3 ; in particular, the deviation (noncollinearity) of the nearest-neighbor spins is accounted for by the antisymmetric Dzyaloshinskii-Moriya exchange interaction [42,43]. AFM spin arrangement is superimposed with a spatially modulated magnetic structure with a large period λ = (620 ± 20 Å) incommensurate with the lattice parameter [44].…”
