摘要
Raman scattering in the quarter-filled spin ladder system alpha'-NaV2O5 shows in the dimerized singlet ground state (T less than or equal to T-SP = 35 K) an unexpected sequence of three magnetic bound stares. Our results suggest that the recently proposed mapping onto an effective spin chain for T > T-SP has to be given up in favor of the full topology and exchange paths of a ladder in the dimerized phase for T<T-SP. As the new ground state we propose a dynamic superposition of energetically nearly degenerate dimer configurations on the ladder. [S0163-1829(98)03646-7].
