Abstract
We present the results for a model calculation of resonant two-magnon Raman scattering in a spin density wave (SDW) antiferromagnet. The resonant enhancement of the two-magnon intensity is obtained from a microscopic analysis of the photon-magnon coupling vertex. By combining magnon-magnon interactions with ‘triple resonance’ phenomena in the vertex function the resulting intensity line shape is found to closely resemble the measured two-magnon Raman signal in antiferromagnetic cuprates. Both, resonant and non-resonant Raman scattering are discussed for the SDW antiferromagnet and a comparison is made to the conventional Loudon-Fleury theory of two-magnon light scattering.
