Abstract
- Frustration can introduce more-than-two minima in a spin dispersion relation even in a fully polarized magnet under high magnetic field. We generally discuss, on the fully polarized phase, the possibility of the chiral symmetry breaking where the number of magnons pumped by finite temperature deviates to one side of minima. We study this phase by constructing the Ginzburg-Landau energy which is controlled by the external magnetic field and interactions between magnons near the dispersion minima. This chirality breaking phase accompanies, not a magnetization perpendicular to the external field, but the vector chirality $S_m \times S_n$. We also discuss the possibility of the chirality breaking phase on LiCuVO4 slightly above the saturation field.<br />Comment: 5 pages, 6 figures
