Figure 5: Signatures of criticality.

From: Critical speeding-up in the magnetoelectric response of spin-ice near its monopole liquid–gas transition

Figure 5

(a) Temperature dependence of the relaxation frequency νp and (b) of the relaxation strength Δε at three different internal magnetic fields. (c) (Hi,T) diagram and contour plot of the peak frequency νp=1/(2πτ) of the dielectric loss (same colour legend as in Fig. 4). The position of FWHM of νp(Hi) (blue dots) approximately obey T~Tc~|HiHi,c|2/3 scaling (blue line). (d) Quasistatic permittivity ε10Hz measured at ν=10 Hz. The inflection points of its field dependence are marked in (c) as yellow dots. The origin of error bars is discussed in detail in Supplementary Fig. 4.
