Long-lived magnons throughout the Brillouin zone of the strong-leg spin ladder (CHN)CuBr

arXiv:1105.4832 · doi:10.1103/PhysRevB.84.144421

Abstract

Inelastic neutron scattering is used to measure spin excitations in fully deuterated single crystal samples of the strong-leg antiferromagnetic S=1/2 spin ladder compound (CHN)CuBr. Sharp resolution-limited magnons are observed across the entire one-dimensional Brillouin zone. The results validate the previously proposed {\it symmetric} spin ladder model and provide a reliable estimate of the relevant exchange interactions.
