In this work, we derive the Landau-Lifshitz-Bloch equation accounting for the multi-domain antiferromagnetic (AFM) lattice at finite temperature, in order to investigate the domain wall (DW) motion, the core issue for AFM spintronics. The continuity equation of the staggered magnetization is obtained using the continuum approximation, allowing an analytical calculation on the domain wall dynamics. The influence of temperature on the static domain wall profile is investigated, and the analytical calculations reproduce well earlier numerical results on temperature gradient driven saturation velocity of the AFM domain wall, confirming the validity of this theory. Moreover, it is worth noting that this theory could be also applied to dynamics of various wall motions in an AFM system. The present theory represents a comprehensive approach to the domain wall dynamics in AFM materials, a crucial step toward the development of AFM spintronics.
