contents We study interaction between two magnetic impurities on top of a two dimensional insulator in the presence of chiral phonons by second-order perturbation theory. We show that this exchange interaction arises from angular momentum of phonons through spin-chiral phonon interaction of the form of spin-orbit coupling. Analytical expressions of the interaction for acoustic and optical phonons are obtained. The exchange interactions are always positive due to the bosonic nature of phonons. We find that the exchange interactions for acoustic and optical phonons show power-law decay with respect to the distance between the two magnetic impurities and are proportional to the temperature of the system at high temperature.
