Abstract
We study the spin dynamics in a 3D quantum antiferromagnet on a face-centered cubic (FCC) lattice. The effects of magnetic field, single-ion anisotropy, and biquadratic interactions are investigated using linear spin wave theory with spins in a canted basis about the Type IIA FCC antiferromagnetic ground state structure which is known to be stable. We calculate the expected finite frequency neutron scattering intensity and give qualitative criteria for typical FCC materials MnO and CoO. The magnetization reduction due to quantum zero point fluctuations is also analyzed.
