This review describes the various attempts to develop a theoretical understanding for
ordering and dynamics of randomly diluted molecular crystals, where quadrupole moments …

The phase of condensed matter known as spin glasses has become a vital and productive
area of research. Historically, experiment has suggested unusual effects which have brought …

The glass transition is well known to glass makers or from the common ex perience of drying
a used chewing gum. A liquid melt or a rubber becomes a solid glass when its temperature …

This review summarizes experimental evidence for the freezing of reorienting moments in
solids. The moments may be of dipolar or quadrupolar nature, or both; they belong to one of …

In this research, an innovative procedure is proposed to elaborate Raman spectra obtained
from nanostructured and disordered solids. As a challenging case study, biochar, a bio …

The dielectric properties of polycrystalline bismuth-based pyrochlores of the general
chemical form Bi 2 (B 2 3 2+ B 4 3 5+) O 7 and Bi2 (B3+ B5+) O7 where B2+= Mg, Cu, Zn …

Low-temperature specific heat measurements and dielectric spectroscopy have been
performed on polycrystalline and single-crystalline F e C r 2 S 4, the single crystals showing …

We have measured the magnetic correlations, susceptibility, specific heat, and thermal
relaxation in the dipolar-coupled Ising system LiHo x Y 1− x F 4. The material is …

Three empirical equations introduced by 10nscher to represent the imaginary part of the
smallsignal frequency response of dielectric materials and termed" universal dielectric …

We have characterized the dielectric relaxation of the charge-density wave (CDW) in K 0.3
MoO 3 at temperatures between 60 and 101 K through measurement of the complex …
