Investigating spin and charge noise in strongly correlated electron systems is a valuable way to analyze their physical properties and unlock new phases of matter. In this context, nitrogen-vacancy (NV) center-based magnetometry has been…
In this paper we develop a theory to calculate the structural relaxation time {\tau} {\alpha} of fragile su percooled liquids. Using the information of the configurational entropy and structure we calculate the number of dynamically free,…
This work is motivated by the relaxation data for materials which exhibit a change of the relationship between the fractional power-law exponents when different relaxation peaks in their dielectric susceptibility are observed. Within the…
Relaxor ferroelectrics are difficult to study and understand. The experiment shows that at low energy scattering there is an acoustic mode, an optic mode, dynamic quasi-elastic scattering and strictly elastic scattering as well as Bragg…
The time-dependent susceptibility for the finite-size mean-field Random Orthogonal model (ROM) is studied numerically for temperatures above the mode-coupling temperature. The results show that the imaginary part of the susceptibility…
Thermal motion of the flux lines (FL) gives rise to fluctuating magnetic fields. These dynamic fields couple to the nuclei in the sample and relax the nuclear spins. Based on a model of harmonic fluctuations, we provide a theoretical…
Frozen percolation on the binary tree was introduced by Aldous around fifteen years ago, inspired by sol-gel transitions. We investigate a version of the model on the triangular lattice, where connected components stop growing ("freeze") as…
We argue that to explain recent resonant tunneling experiments on crystals of Mn$_{12}$ and Fe$_8$, particularly in the low-T limit, one must invoke dynamic nuclear spin and dipolar interactions. We show the low-$T$, short-time relaxation…
Relaxor ferroelectrics are applied in electronic devices such as actuators and sonars. Morphotrophic phase boundaries (MPBs) with monoclinic structures are known for their high piezoelectricity and electromechanical coupling factors in…
We have derived the dipolar relaxation function for a cluster model whose volume distribution was obtained from the generalized maximum Tsallis nonextensive entropy principle. The power law exponents of the relaxation function are simply…
Relaxor ferroelectrics, which can exhibit exceptional electromechanical coupling are some of the most important functional materials with applications ranging from ultrasound imaging to actuators and sensors in microelectromechanical…
We have developed a dynamical model for the dielectric response in relaxor ferroelectrics which explicitly takes into account the coexistence of the critical slowing down and glassy freezing. The application of the model to the experiment…
The observed temperature dependence of electrical conduction in polymer electrolytes is usually fitted with two separated equations: an Arrhenius equation at low temperatures and Vogel-Tamman-Fulcher (VTF) at high temperatures. We report…
The paper suggests to treat the infrared reflectivity spectra of single crystal perovskite relaxors as fine-grained ferroelectric ceramics: locally frozen polarization makes the dielectric function strongly anisotropic in the phonon…
We study the radiative cooling of polar and metallic nanoparticles immersed in a thermal bath close to a partially reflecting surface. The dynamics of relaxation is investigated at different distances from the surface, i.e., in the…
We have characterized the dynamics of the polar nanoregions in Pb(Mg$_{1/3}$Nb$_{2/3}$)O$_{3}$ (PMN) through high-resolution neutron backscattering and spin-echo measurements of the diffuse scattering cross section. We find that the diffuse…
Landau's theory of phase transitions is adapted to treat independently relaxing regions in complex systems using nanothermodynamics. The order parameter we use governs the thermal fluctuations, not a specific static structure. We find that…
Monte Carlo simulations are used to study the magnetic relaxation of a system of single domain particles with dipolar interactions modeled by a chain of Heisenberg classical spins. We show that the so-called $T\ln(t/\tau_0)$ method can be…
Motivated by a recent proposal by O. P. Sushkov and co-workers to search for a P,T-violating Schiff moment of the $^{207}$Pb nucleus in a ferroelectric solid, we have carried out a high-field nuclear magnetic resonance study of the…
The reversal time (superparamagnetic relaxation time) of the magnetization of fine single domain ferromagnetic nanoparticles owing to thermal fluctuations plays a fundamental role in information storage, paleomagnetism, biotechnology, etc.…
