摘要
The uniaxial pressure dependence of the exchange coupling and the structural distortion in the dimerized phase of CuGeO3 are analyzed. A minimum magnetic dimerization of 3% is obtained incompatible with an adiabatic approach to the spin-Peierls transition. Exploring the properties of an Heisenberg spin chain with dynamical spin-phonon coupling, the dimerization dependence of the spin excitation gap is found to be in qualitative agreement with experiment.
