Magnons : Spin-Waves in Magnetic Materials
semanticscholar(2018)
摘要
The purpose of this essay is to develop the notion of emergent magnon excitations which appear in magnetic materials. In particular, we will discuss the so-called Holstein-Primakoff boson and Schwinger boson representations of spin-operators. This technique is powerful in that we can utilize the second quantization formalism discussed in class; however, we will find this approach places a constraint on the Hilbert space of the operators.[1] With the preceding formalism established, we will apply it to the Heisenberg model (a minimal model of a ferromagnet) and show that the low-energy quasiparticle excitations describing such a system are spin-waves.[2] We will conclude with a discussion of potential technologies which can exploit spinwave physics — a field known as magnonics.[3]
