摘要
Spin glass particles were prepared as the mesoscopic system in order to examine the space scale of spin glass domain (droplet). The peak temperature T-peak in the temperature-dependent magnetization is systematically reduced with decreasing average particle size. This is due to the imitation of droplet growth to the particle diameter. The magnetic field H also decreases T-peak, which is caused by the reduction of the barrier height by Zeeman energy. However, there appears different tendency in the relation between H and T-peak below 100 Oe. This indicates the existence of crossover between the two regimes in which the free energy and Zeeman energy govern the droplet excitation. (c) 2006 Elsevier B.V. All rights reserved.
