Cationic distribution, exchange interactions, and relaxation dynamics in Zn-diluted MnCo2O4 nanostructures by Tiwari, Nidhi, Pramanik, P., Joshi, D. C., Sarkar, T., Pittala, S., Salman, O. O., Manga, M.-M., Thota, S.

“…The amplitude and peak position in χac(T) decreases with an increase in the DC bias field, which indicates that the spin-glass phase can survive in the presence of low fields forming a critical line with an exponent 2/3. This behavior is similar to the de Almeida-Thouless (AT-line) analysis in the T-H phase diagram which supports the existence of spin-glass like behavior below TF in these Zn diluted spinels.…”
