Spin‐Phonon Interaction beyond the Limit of Spin‐wave Approximation

Abstract

AbstractBy solving the system of equations for the doubletime Green functions, an expression for the energy spectrum of the spinsystem with the correction due to spin‐phonon interaction is derived. The utilized commutation relations for spin‐operators are more complicated than in the case of the spin‐wave approximation. In the lower temperature region, our expression becomes the one obtained by the spin‐wave approximation. The temperature dependence and the wave‐vector dependence of the broadening of the energy level are evaluated.
