We have determined the resonance frequency ω versus resonant field H diagram for CuMn with Mn concentrations 2, 3.5, and 5 at.%, both when H⃗ is parallel and antiparallel to the cooling field H⃗c. From the parallel measurements we find anisotropy energy density constants K that are in agreement with K values determined from transverse susceptibility and torque measurements. However, the K values determined from the remanence reversal of dc magnetization are smaller by a factor of approximately 2. We suggest that this is caused by a breakdown of rigid-body spin rotations. By combining the parallel data with …

The in situ electron-spin resonance of a voltage-biased NbAuNb Josephson junction is reported. The Au barrier is doped with Gd or 167Er ions. Sharp resonances appear in the I-V curves at frequencies equivalent to the crystal-field splitting of AuGd (1.0 and 1.7 GHz) and to the hyperfine splitting of Au167Er (2.87 GHz). The principle of this new type of ESR-Josephson-junction spectrometer, as well as its application, is discussed.


Esr Relaxation In Spin Glasses, S. E. Barnes Jan 1984

Esr Relaxation In Spin Glasses, S. E. Barnes

Physics Articles and Papers

The Bloch-Hasegawa theory for the ESR of magnetic alloys is adapted and extended to spin glasses in the paramagnetic regime, that is, for temperatures T>TG, the cusp temperature. Negative residual widths, reduced thermal broadening, and a possible critical divergence of the residual width are all explained in terms of minor extensions of the standard theory.

The scaling model of spin-glass phenomena is extended to consider both longitudinal and transverse order parameters q1 and qt. The lowest-order coupling in the free energy goes as ql2qt2. The field (h) dependence of the reduced temperature t for transverse freezing is found to be t∼h4/δ where δ is the conventional nonlinear susceptibility field exponent (χ∼h2/δ). While the transverse correlation length diverges at t=0, the longitudinal correlation length remains finite.
