Existence of a phase transition under finite magnetic field in the long-range RKKY Ising spin glass DyYRuSi
A phase transition of a model compound of the long-range Ising spin glass
(SG) DyYRuSi, where spins interact via the RKKY
interaction, has been investigated. The static and the dynamic scaling analyses
reveal that the SG phase transition in the model magnet belongs to the
mean-field universality class. Moreover, the characteristic relaxation time in
finite magnetic fields exhibits a critical divergent behavior as well as in
zero field, indicating a stability of the SG phase in finite fields. The
presence of the SG phase transition in field in the model magnet strongly
syggests that the replica symmetry is broken in the long-range Ising SG.Comment: 4 pages, 4 figures, to be published in JPSJ (2010
Evidence for Carrier-Induced High-Tc Ferromagnetism in Mn-doped GaN film
A GaN film doped with 8.2 % Mn was grown by the molecular-beam-epitaxy
technique. Magnetization measurements show that this highly Mn-doped GaN film
exhibits ferromagnetism above room temperature. It is also revealed that the
high-temperature ferromagnetic state is significantly suppressed below 10 K,
accompanied by an increase of the electrical resistivity with decreasing
temperature. This observation clearly demonstrates a close relation between the
ferromagnetism with extremely high-Tc and the carrier transport in the Mn-doped
GaN film.Comment: 9 pages, 3 figure
Magnetic Properties of a Pressure-induced Superconductor UGe
We performed the DC-magnetization and neutron scattering experiments under
pressure {\it P} for a pressure-induced superconductor UGe. We found that
the magnetic moment is enhanced at a characteristic temperature {\it T}
in the ferromagnetic state, where {\it T} is smaller than a Curie
temperature {\it T}. This enhancement becomes remarkable in the
vicinity of {\it P} = 1.20 GPa, where {\it T} becomes 0 K
and the superconducting transition temperature {\it T} shows a
maximum. The characteristic temperature {\it T}, which decreases with
increasing pressure, also depends on the magnetic field.Comment: To be published in J.Phys.Soc.Jp
Novel ordering of an S = 1/2 quasi one-dimensional Ising-like anitiferromagnet in magnetic field
High-field specific heat measurements on BaCo2V2O8, which is a good
realization of an S = 1/2 quasi one-dimensional Ising-like antifferomagnet,
have been performed in magnetic fields up to 12 T along the chain and at
temperature down to 200 mK. We have found a new magnetic ordered state in the
field-induced phase above Hc ~ 3.9 T. We suggest that a novel type of the
incommensurate order, which has no correspondence to the classical spin system,
is realized in the field-induced phase.Comment: 4pages, 4figure
