No Phase Transition in a Magnetic Field in the Ising Spin Glass Fe0.5Mn0.5TiO3

Abstract
The dynamic scaling behavior of the Ising spin glass Fe0.5Mn0.5TiO3 in superimposed dc magnetic fields has been studied. The dynamic freezing temperatures Tfω,H were determined as a function of field 0H3.1 T and frequency 0.017ω/2π5100 Hz. The in-field scaling behavior is strikingly different from the zero-field behavior and is well described by activated dynamics and a correlation length that depends on field as ξHνH. The results are in agreement with the droplet model predictions and strongly suggest that there is no phase transition in a magnetic field in 3D Ising spin glasses.
