Abstract: | A study is reported of the scattering of surface magnetic polaritons in the vicinity of second-order spin-reorientational phase transitions, which is caused by spatial fluctuations of the order parameter. A four-sublattice antiferromagnet α-Fe2O3 is used as an example to derive expressions for the vacuum-scattered radiation near exchange magnetic-vibration frequencies. The scattering of surface magnetic polaritons is shown to be resonantly enhanced in characteristic regions of their spectrum. Estimates made for α-Fe2O3 indicate a possibility of experimental observation of surface magnetic-polariton scattering from fluctuations of the refractive index near second-order spin-reorientational phase transitions. |
