Evolution of spin-wave excitations in ferromagnetic metallic manganites

arXiv:cond-mat/0512368 · doi:10.1103/PhysRevLett.96.047204

Abstract

Neutron scattering results are presented for spin-wave excitations of three ferromagnetic metallic MnO manganites (where and are rare- and alkaline-earth ions), which when combined with previous work elucidate systematics of the interactions as a function of carrier concentration , on-site disorder, and strength of the lattice distortion. The long wavelength spin dynamics show only a very weak dependence across the series. The ratio of fourth to first neighbor exchange () that controls the zone boundary magnon softening changes systematically with , but does not depend on the other parameters. None of the prevailing models can account for these behaviors.
