Topological spin glass in diluted spin ice

A Sen, R Moessner - Physical review letters, 2015 - APS
It is a salient experimental fact that a large fraction of candidate spin liquid materials freeze
as the temperature is lowered. The question naturally arises whether such freezing is …

Magneto-optical Kerr effect studies of square artificial spin ice

systems reveal very peculiar properties which distinguish them from standard paramagnets …

Order from structural disorder in the pyrochlore antiferromagnet

VS Maryasin, ME Zhitomirsky - Physical Review B, 2014 - APS
The effect of structural disorder is investigated for an XY pyrochlore antiferromagnet with
