| Abstract: | ac susceptibility measurements are presented on the dilute, dipolar coupled, Ising magnet LiHoxY1-xF4 for a concentration x=0.045. The frequency and temperature dependences of the susceptibility show characteristic glassy relaxation. The absorption spectrum is found to broaden with decreasing temperature suggesting that the material is behaving as a spin glass and not as an exotic spin liquid as was previously observed. A dynamical scaling analysis suggests a spin glass transition temperature of 43+/-2 mK with an exponent znu=7.8+/-0.2. |
