Spin-lattice coupling in Mn3Ge and Mn3Sn — •Aleksandr Sukhanov1, Artem Korshunov2, Nikita Andriushin1, Alexei Bosak2, and Marein Rahn11Institut für Festkörper- und Materialphysik, Technische Universität Dresden, D-01069 Dresden — 2European Synchrotron Radiation Facility (ESRF), BP 220, F-38043 Grenoble Cedex, France

Strong spin-lattice coupling in a material can be evidenced in spectroscopy by hybridization of magnons and phonons, which are quanta of spin excitations and crystal-lattice vibrations in ordered materials, respectively. In this case, an avoided crossing can be formed when the bare magnon and phonon dispersions intersect in reciprocal space at some momentum and energy.

The isostructural hexagonal compounds Mn3Ge and Mn3Sn are both characterized by a noncollinear spin order due to the geometric frustration of the kagome lattice formed by Mn ions. In this talk, we will discuss the results of our recent single-crystal inelastic x-ray scattering experiments on these two compounds. We were able to clearly resolve momenta and energy of the spin-lattice hybrid excitations in Mn3Ge, whereas Mn3Sn seem to show no signs of spin-lattice coupling in its spectra.

Keywords: magnons; phonons; inelastic x-ray scattering
