Numerical study on the low temperature phase of the 3D +/- J Ising spin glass model

Experimentally derived physical properties of 3d Ising spin glasses are discussed and compared to what is anticipated from theory and simulations of model systems. It is found that the spin glass experiences a zero-field phase transition to a low-temperature spin-glass phase, that there is no phase transition in a magnetic field and that nonequilibrium and chaos effects often dominate the dynamics of the low-temperature glassy phase. These results are in agreement with findings from Monte Carlo simulations and with properties derived from the droplet model.Experimentally derived physical properties of 3d Ising spin glasses are discussed and compared to what is anticipated from theory and simulations of model systems.

Aging of two-dimensional (2D) Ising spin glasses with short-range interactions ${\mathrm{Rb}}_{2}$ ${\mathrm{Cu}}_{1\mathrm{\ensuremath{-}}\mathit{x}}$ ${\mathrm{Co}}_{\mathit{x}}$ ${\mathrm{F}}_{4}$ ( ${\mathit{T}}_{\mathit{c}}$ =0) is studied in the critical regime via the low-frequency ac susceptibility and via the dc magnetization for x=0.22 and 0.33. After quenching to low temperatures, slow logarithmic relaxation is observed for both the in-phase and out-of-phase ac susceptibilities. Using the droplet scaling model, the spin-glass correlation length R is concluded to increase after a temperature quench as R\ensuremath{\propto}(lnt${)}^{1/\mathrm{\ensuremath{\psi}}}$, with t in units of some microscopic time. The exponent \ensuremath{\psi}=1.0\ifmmode\pm\else\textpm\fi{}0.1 compares with recent theoretical results and numerical simulations for 2D short-range Ising spin glasses. The waiting-time dependence found for the field-cooled and zero-field-cooled dc magnetizations points to a markedly slower crossover from the quasiequilibrium to the nonequilibrium regime than in 3D. From experiments with different cooling histories, finally, the equilibrium spin-glass state is inferred to be strongly dependent on the temperature.Aging of two-dimensional (2D) Ising spin glasses with short-range interactions ${\mathrm{Rb}}_{2}$${\mathrm{Cu}}_{1\mathrm{\ensuremath{-}}\mathit{x}}$${\mathrm{Co}}_{\mathit{x}}$${\mathrm{F}}_{4}$ (${\mathit{T}}_{\mathit{c}}$=0) is studied in the critical regime via the low-frequency ac susceptibility and via the dc magnetization for x=0.22 and 0.33.
