| Outline of Final Research Achievements |
We observed nonlinear nuclear magnetic resonance signals in antiferromagnetic MnCO3 samples at strong microwave pumping. The signals indicated that the conventional model of heating of nuclear spins by microwave pumping can not explain the observed results. We developed a theoretical framework to explain nonlinear nuclear resonance signals at strong microwave pumping. Our approach is based on Landau-Lifshitz-Gilbert equations of motion to describe coupled electron-nuclear spin precession. Comparison of our theory with experiments indicates that under strong microwave pumping the nuclear magnetization vector is deflected by a large angle while preserving its magnitude. This can be identified with the Bose-Einstein condensate of nuclear magnons with coherently and uniformly precesses nuclear spins.
