Resonance properties of the quasi-one-dimensional Ising magnet [(CH3)3NH]CoCl3⋅2H2O in the paramagnetic and magnetically ordered phases

A study is made of the angular, frequency–field, and temperature dependences of the magnetic resonance of the quasi-one-dimensional Ising magnet [(CH3)3NH]CoCl3⋅2H2O in the paramagnetic phase. The experimental results obtained are explained in a model of spin-cluster resonance in a strongly exchange-coupled spin chain. The frequency–field dependences of the ferromagnetic resonance spectrum measured below the Neel temperature are studied for magnetic-field directions along the crystallographic axes a, b, and c. It is shown that for H→0 the spin-wave spectrum of this quasiferromagnet has two gaps (ν1=70.1 GHz and ν2=52.5 GHz).
