Coupling between elementary excitations in CoTiO<sub>3</sub>

ORAL

Abstract

Neutron scattering experiments have revealed Dirac magnon dispersion and spin-orbit excitations in a 3D quantum XY magnet CoTiO3. Here, we investigate unique phonon properties in this material using magneto-Raman spectroscopy. The coupling between spin-orbit excitations and phonons endows large magnetic moments to two Eg phonon modes. We report the evolution of phonon spectra as a function of an external magnetic field, polarization, and temperature in CoTiO3.
