Abstract
We present results of low-temperature two-magnon resonance Raman excit ation profile measurements for single-layer Sr2CuO2Cl2 and bilayer YBa 2Cu3O6+delta antiferromagnets over the excitation region from 1.65 to 3.05 eV. These data reveal composite structure of the two-magnon line shape and strong nonmonotic dependence of the scattering intensity on excitation energy. We analyze these data using the triple resonance th eory of Chubukov and Frenkel [Phys. Rev. Lett. 74, 3057 (1995)] and de duce information about magnetic interaction and band parameters in the se materials.
