Low-dimensional quantum antiferromagnetism is characterized by the weakness or even absence of long-range order. Thus one has to deal with so-called spin liquids. The elementary excitations of such systems have mostly spin S=1; they are triplons [1]. We calculate the dispersion of such triplons and the resulting spectral functions of dimerized spin chains [2], of spin ladders [3] and of coupled spin ladders. The results are relevant for inelastic neutron scattering and inelastic light scattering and for optical absorption.
In particular, we show how the result for a one-dimensional system can be extended to a quasi one-dimensional systems by perpendicular couplings. The magnetic structure factor S(ω) observed in striped cuprate superconductors [4] is explained in this way. A crossover is found from magnon-like to triplon-like excitations as function of energy.
