Abstract
Low-dimensional spin systems reveal new and unexpected physical phenomena such as distinct plateaus in the magnetization as a function of magnetic field. In this paper we present ultrasonic measurements for the quasi-two-dimensional spin system SrCu2(BO3)2 in magnetic fields up to 50 T. From this technique we obtained detailed information about the spin state, the magnetic excitations and their interaction with phonons. The dimerized quantum-spin system SrCu2(BO3)2 exhibits plateaus in the magnetization and shows surprisingly strong magneto-elastic effects as a function of temperature and magnetic field. The pronounced elastic anomalies indicate a resonant interaction between the sound wave and the magnetic excitations.
