Spin-glass and antiferromagnet critical behavior in a diluted fcc antiferromagnet.
/ Authors
/ Abstract
We report on a Monte Carlo study of a diluted Ising antiferromagnet on a fcc lattice. This is a typical model example of a highly frustrated antiferromagnet, and we ask, whether sufficient random dilution of spins does produce a spin glass phase. Our data strongly indicate the existence of a spin glass transition for spin--concentration $p 0.85$, which becomes continuous in the range $0.85>p>0.75$. Finite size scaling is employed to obtain critical exponents. We compare our results with experimental systems as diluted frustrated antiferromagnets as ${\rm Zn_{1-p}Mn_{p}Te}$.
