Evidence for a Novel Relaxation Mechanism in Glasses at Very Low Temperatures — •Marius Hempel, Andreas Reiser, Andreas Fleischmann, and Christian Enss — Kirchhoff-Institut für Physik, Universität Heidelberg, 69120 Heidelberg

The acoustic and dielectric properties of amorphous solids at low temperatures are governed by two level tunneling systems and can be described in similar ways. One difference is however, that electric fields couple only to tunneling systems carrying an electric dipole moment, whereas acoustic measurements couple to all tunneling systems. Thus, the two methods complement each other and can therefore lead to a better understanding of the underlying processes.

Low frequency measurements of the dielectric properties of the two multicomponent glasses N-KZFS11 and HY-1, containing significant amounts of tantalum and holmium respectively, have recently shown unexpected behavior, which cannot be understood in terms of the so called standard tunneling model. This behavior has been attributed to the very large nuclear electric quadrupole moments of 181Ta and 165Ho.

We present the first measurements of the acoustic properties of N-KZFS11 and HY-1 in the kHz range down to 10 mK. The results of these measurements underpin the observations seen in dielectric experiments and provide further evidence for a novel relaxation mechanism in such glasses.
