Effects of spin ordering on the phonons, plasmons, and dielectric properties have been investigated for many magnetic crystals, such as Cr-spinels, EuX (X = O,S,Se,Te), and fluorite-type compounds. Of these phenomena, the static dielectric constant and Raman scattering have been extensively discussed. However, the dielectric parameters obtained from infrared spectra have not been discussed in spite of observed various phenomena arising from the direct coupling of spin system with phonons or electrons. Furthermore, these microscopic phenomena can be combined with the macroscopic dielectric values with respect to the spin ordering effect. It will ascertain the mechanism of the spin ordering effect on the values. From this point of view, we review the spin-dependent phenomena on the frequencies of TO and LO phonon modes, phonon damping, optical and static dielectric constants, effective charge, and also on plasmon parameters in the spinel type magnetic semiconductors.KEY WORDS: Spin ordering effect, phonon and plasmon, dielectric property, magnetic semiconductor, spinel.
