Field-Induced "Exchange Flips" in a Randomly Diluted Antiferromagnet

Authors:

Abstract
High-field magnetization studies of the randomly diluted, anisotropic antiferromagnet FexZn1−xF2 have confirmed the existence of novel single-spin "exchange flips," occurring at fields H0=18nHE (n=1,…,5), as predicted by a classical spin computer simulation. Field direction hysteresis of dMdH0 is shown to result from "crossover" behavior to states which have no long-range order.
