Phys. Rev. Lett. 69, 2299–2302 (1992)Raman scattering in FeBO3 at high pressures: Phonon coupled to spin-pair fluctuations and magneto-deformation potentialsReceived 20 July 1992; published in the issue dated 12 October 1992 The first direct measurement of the modulation of the magnetic superexchange parameter J by optical phonons is reported. High-pressure Raman scattering studies of the model compound FeBO3 reveal an unexpectedly large interaction between a (BO3)3- internal mode and spin-pair excitations. By pressure tuning J, resonant decay of the phonon into the two-magnon continuum and associated mixing were observed yielding a phonon-magnon-pair coupling constant g≊(0.15–0.20)J. © 1992 The American Physical Society URL:
