Two-magnon states of the alternating ferromagnetic Heisenberg chain

Abstract: The authors examine the nature of two-magnon excitations in the alternating bond ferromagnetic S=1/2 spin chain. Both a direct analytic approach as well as a method based on a scaling transformation are used to study the bound state branches and their relationship to the two-magnon continuum. Several features are expected to be observable in two-magnon Raman scattering experiments.

“…Bell et al 20 studied the two-magnon spectrum of the alternating bond Sϭ 1 2 Heisenberg chain and found a total of four two-magnon bound state branches compared to the uniform chain which only has one branch. Medved et al 6 studied higher spin models and found that an additional bound state branch appears when the spin magnitude is increased to Sϭ1.…”

“…Comparison of our results to the known analytical results of Bethe 9,10 for the SϭSЈϭ1/2 chain with homoge-neous bonds indicate complete agreement. We extended the study of Bell et al 20 of the alternating bond Sϭ1/2 twomagnon spectrum to the three-magnon problem. When a bond alternation is introduced, gaps immediately appear and additional bound states are found.…”
