Abstract
This paper reviews experimental investigations of spin-wave spectra and their relaxation rate in CoCO3 by Brillouin-Mandelstam light scattering method (BMS). The first experiments on light scattering by spin waves was by Fleury and his colleagues (1,2) who observed one and two magnon scattering by magnons with a pronounced ( ~ 3–5 cm−1) gap in the energy spectrum. Details of the investigation of such Raman scattering from magnons can be found in review articles (3–5). In the last few years, Sandercock and his colleagues have published a number of papers on BMS by the low frequency branch of the magnon spectrum (6,7). These experiments required an interferometer of high contrast, and Sandercock developed a multipass Fabry-Perot interferometer which was able to meet this requirement (8).
