The optical conductivity σ (ω) of undoped and very low doped YBa 2 Cu 3 O 6.0 δ is studied in detail in the midinfrared range. We collect experimental evidence for a magnetic origin of the observed absorption. The main resonance peak is well described by a bimagnon-plus-phonon absorption spectrum calculated within spin-wave theory. But spin-wave theory fails to describe further resonances at higher frequencies with significant spectral weight, which grows with both temperature and doping. This underlines the importance of quantum fluctuations for the description of short-wavelength magnetic excitations in a two-dimensional spin-1/2 system.
