The Curie temperature Tc decreases steeply with increasing x and this transition becomes ill-defined around x = 0.47. Two distinct transitions appear below Tc over the range x = 0.40 - 0.47. Coexistence of the ferromagnetism and spin-glass order would be observed below the Gabay and Toulouse transition TGT, owing to freezing of the transverse-spin components without changing of the ferromagnetic order parameter. Finally, at a yet lower temperature de Almeida-Thouless transition TAT, the longitudinal-spin component freezes randomly at which an irreversibility arises between zero-field-cooled (ZFC) and field-cooled (FC) magnetizations. Over the range of 0.47 ≤ x ≤ 0.85, a cusp of the ZFC magnetization is seen at Tg like conventional spin-glass. Specimens with x ≥ 0.90 remain paramagnetic down to 2.0 K. A magnetic phase diagram between T versus x has been obtained experimentally. The values of the multi critical point in 100 Oe is detected to be x = 0.47 and T = 7.40 K. The low field magnetization and the phase diagram are satisfactorily explained by the theory of Gabay and Toulouse on the basis of Heisenberg isotropic vector spin model rather than the Ising spin model.}, pages = {608--616}, title = {Evolution from a ferromagnetic to a spin-glass regime in the spinel-type Cu(Cr1-xTix)2S4}, volume = {182}, year = {2009}, yomi = {エビス, シュウジ and ナガタ, ショウイチ} }
