We develop a mean-field theory for random quantum spin systems using the spin coherent state path integral representation. After the model is reduced to the mean field one-body Hamiltonian, the integral is analyzed with the aid of several…

We present the dielectric and magnetodielectric properties of Pr0.6Ca0.4MnO3 polycrystalline sample. Dielectric permittivity ({\epsilon'}) (and d{\epsilon'}/dT) portrays the charge order and other magnetic transitions observed in the…

The emergent behavior of spin liquids that are born out of geometrical frustration makes them an intriguing state of matter. We show that in the quantum kagome antiferromagnet ZnCu$_3$(OH)$_6$SO$_4$ several different correlated, yet…

The Quantum Random Energy Model (QREM) is a random matrix of Anderson-type which describes effects of a transversal magnetic field on Derrida's spin glass. The model exhibits a glass phase as well as a classical and a quantum paramagnetic…

CaRuO3 is a perovskite with an orthorhombic distortion and shows the characteristics of spin-glass behavior below TC=87 K. The La3+ substitution for Ca2+ in Ca1-xLaxRuO3 samples, induces a disorder in the Ca site (the A site) and the system…

X-ray powder diffraction (XRD) along with differential thermal analysis (DTA) carried out on the as-quenched samples in the 3BaO-3TiO2-B2O3 system confirmed their amorphous and glassy nature, respectively. The dielectric constants in the 1…

The structural phase transition in hexagonal BaMnO$_3$ occurring at $T_c$=130 K was studied in ceramic samples using electron and X-ray diffraction, second harmonic generation as well as by dielectric and lattice dynamic spectroscopies. The…

One of the key questions concerning frustrated lattices that has lately emerged is the role of disorder in inducing spin-liquid-like properties. In this context, the quantum kagome antiferromagnets YCu$_3$(OH)$_6$Cl$_3$, which has been…

Neutron diffraction measurements on multiferroic LuFe2O4 show changes in the antiferromagnetic (AFM) structure characterized by wavevector q = (1/3 1/3 1/2) as a function of electric field cooling procedures. The increase of intensity from…

The effect of pressure on the unique electronic state of the antiferromagnetic (AF) compound EuCu2Ge2 has been measured in a wide temperature range from 10 mK to 300 K by electrical resistivity measurements up to 10 GPa. The Neel…

We present the results of elastic and inelastic neutron scattering measurements on non-superconducting Ba(Fe${_{0.957}}$Cu${_{0.043}}$)${_2}$As${_2}$, a composition close to a quantum critical point between AFM ordered and paramagnetic…

We have carried out a comprehensive investigation of magnetic properties of LuFe$_2$O$_4$, using AC susceptibility, DC magnetization and specific heat. A magnetic phase transition around $\sim$236 K was observed with DC magnetization and…

We report detailed dc magnetization, linear and non-linear ac susceptibility measurements on the hole doped disordered cobaltite La$_{0.5}$Ba$_{0.5}$CoO$_3$. Our results show that the magnetically ordered state of the system consists of…

Quantum paraelectrics are materials in which a long-range ferroelectric/antiferroelectric order is suppressed by quantum fluctuations, i.e. zero-point motion of the lattice prevents condensation of the soft polar phonon mode even at T = 0…

We critically investigate the purported existence of a multiglass state in the quantum paraelectrics SrTiO${_3}$ and KTaO${_3}$ doped with magnetic 3d transition metals. We observe that the transition metals have limited solubility in these…

Hexagonal ferrites do not only have enormous commercial impact ({\pounds}2 billion/year in sales) due to applications that include ultra-high density memories, credit card stripes, magnetic bar codes, small motors and low-loss microwave…

The $T$-dependence (2- 400 K) of the electron paramagnetic resonance (EPR), magnetic susceptibility, $\chi (T)$, and specific heat, $C_{v}(T)$, of the $normal$ antiferromagnetic (AFM) spinel ZnCr$_{2}$O$_{4}$ and the spin-glass (SG)…

The magnetic properties of Ba3TiRu2O9 , whose crystal structure is based on stacked triangular planar lattices of MO6 dimers and single MO6 octahedra, are reported. The system is magnetically disturbed by a substantial amount of Ti/Ru…

The nature of the superfluid-to-Bose-glass (SF-BG) quantum phase transition, occurring in systems of interacting bosons immersed in a disordered environment, remains elusive. One fundamental open question is whether or not the transition…

We carried out AC magnetic susceptibility measurements and muon spin relaxation spectroscopy on the cubic double perovskite Ba2YMoO6, down to 50 mK. Below ~1 K the muon relaxation is typical of a magnetic insulator with a spin-liquid type…
