The intention with this thesis is to investigate a dimer in a spin chain. Inorder to do that, a model from Z2-gauge theory is taken as the theoretical motivation to construct a discrete lattice with Ising spin properties. A dimer is then allowed to exist indirectly in the empty space between sites. We choose to tackle the problem through a quantum mechanical approach in 1+1-dimensions, distancing ourselves from the original description in quantum field theory. The exposition begins by reviewing the spatial construction of the entire chain as well as its components, and ends with a discussion of time development where the main concern is dispersion in addition to reflection against a static charge.
