Magnetic frustration in insulators and conductors

This thesis presents experimental investigations of magnetically frustrated materials. The first part describes an investigation of the zero-point entropy of spin glasses. Heat capacity measurements on the insulating spin glass series ZnxCu1−xAl2O4 were conducted, and their zero-point entropies were...
