Abstract
The antiferromagnetic correlation plays an important role in high-T superconductors. Considering this effect, the magnetic excitations in n-type cuprates near the optimal doping are studied within the spin density wave description. The magnetic excitations are commensurate in the low energy regime and further develop into spin wave-like dispersion at higher energy, well consistent with the inelastic neutron scattering measurements. We clearly demonstrate that the commensurability originates from the band splitting and Fermi surface topology. The commensurability is a normal state property, and has nothing to do with d-wave superconductivity. The distinct behaviors of magnetic excitation between the n-type and p-type cuprates are further discussed. Our results strongly suggest the essential role of antiferromagnetic correlations in the cuprates.
