The disordered antiferromagnet pfn (pfns) is investigated in a wide temperature range by combining Mossbauer spectroscopy and neutron diffraction experiments. It is demonstrated that the magnetic ground state is a {it microscopic} coexistence of antiferromagnetic and a spin-glass orders. This speromagnet-like phase features frozen-in short-range fluctuations of the Fe$^{3+}$ magnetic moments that are transverse to the long-range ordered antiferromagnetic spin component.

We use inelastic neutron scattering to study energy and wave vector dependence of spin fluctuations in SrCo$_2$As$_2$, derived from SrFe$_{2-x}$Co$_x$As$_2$ iron pnictide superconductors. Our data reveals the coexistence of antiferromagnetic (AF) and ferromagnetic (FM) spin fluctuations at wave vectors $textbf{Q}_{rm AF}$=(1,0) and $textbf{Q}_{rm FM}$=(0,0)/(2,0), respectively. By comparing neutron scattering results with those of dynamic mean field theory calculation and angle-resolved photoemission spectroscopy experiments, we conclude that both AF and FM spin fluctuations in SrCo$_2$As$_2$ are closely associated with a flat band of the $e_g$ orbitals near the Fermi level, different from the $t_{2g}$ orbitals in superconducting SrFe$_{2-x}$Co$_x$As$_2$. Therefore, Co-substitution in SrFe$_{2-x}$Co$_x$As$_2$ induces a $t_{2g}$ to $e_g$ orbital switching, and is responsible for FM spin fluctuations detrimental to the singlet pairing superconductivity.
We report the coexistence of the Kondo effect and spin glass behavior in Fe-doped NbS$_2$ single crystals. The Fe$_x$NbS$_2$ shows the resistance minimum and negative magnetoresistance due to the Kondo effect, and exhibits no superconducting behavior at low temperatures. The resistance curve follows a numerical renormalization-group theory using the Kondo temperature $T_K =12.3$~K for $x=0.01$ as evidence of Kondo effect. Scanning tunneling microscope/spectroscopy (STM/STS) revealed the presence of Fe atoms near sulfur atoms and asymmetric spectra. The magnetic susceptibility exhibits a feature of spin glass. The static critical exponents determined by the universal scaling of the nonlinear part of the susceptibility suggest a three-dimensional Heisenberg spin glass. The doped-Fe atoms in the intra- and inter-layers revealed by the X-ray result can realize the coexistence of the Kondo effect and spin glass.
An oxygen hyperstoichiometric ferrite CaBaFe4O7+delta (delta approx 0.14) has been synthesized using soft reduction of CaBaFe4O8. Like the oxygen stoichiometric ferrimagnet CaBaFe4O7, this oxide also keeps the hexagonal symmetry (space group: P63mc), and exhibits the same high Curie temperature of 270 K. However, the introduction of extra oxygen into the system weakens the ferrimagnetic interaction significantly at the cost of increased magnetic frustration at low temperature. Moreover, this canonical spin glass (Tg ~ 166 K) exhibits an intriguing cross-over from de Almeida-Thouless type to Gabay-Toulouse type critical line in the field temperature plane above a certain field strength, which can be identified as the anisotropy field. Domain wall pinning is also observed below 110 K. These results are interpreted on the basis of cationic disordering on the iron sites.
The theory behind the electrical switching of antiferromagnets is premised on the existence of a well defined broken symmetry state that can be rotated to encode information. A spin glass is in many ways the antithesis of this state, characterized by an ergodic landscape of nearly degenerate magnetic configurations, choosing to freeze into a distribution of these in a manner that is seemingly bereft of information. In this study, we show that the coexistence of spin glass and antiferromagnetic order allows a novel mechanism to facilitate the switching of the antiferromagnet Fe$_{1/3+delta}$NbS$_2$, which is rooted in the electrically-stimulated collective winding of the spin glass. The local texture of the spin glass opens an anisotropic channel of interaction that can be used to rotate the equilibrium orientation of the antiferromagnetic state. The use of a spin glass collective dynamics to electrically manipulate antiferromagnetic spin textures has never been applied before, opening the field of antiferromagnetic spintronics to many more material platforms with complex magnetic textures.

In conventional quasi-one-dimensional antiferromagnets with quantum spins, magnetic excitations are carried by either magnons or spinons in different energy regimes: they do not coexist independently, nor could they interact with each other. In this Letter, by combining inelastic neutron scattering, quantum Monte Carlo simulations and Random Phase Approximation calculations, we report the discovery and discuss the physics of the coexistence of magnons and spinons and their interactions in Botallackite-Cu2(OH)3Br. This is a unique quantum antiferromagnet consisting of alternating ferromagnetic and antiferromagnetic Spin-1/2 chains with weak inter-chain couplings. Our study presents a new paradigm where one can study the interaction between two different types of magnetic quasiparticles, magnons and spinons.
