The first part of this talk is dedicated to the design and implementation of a piezomotor driven SQUID magnetometer capable of running at temperatures below 100 mK. The overall design is presented with key components explained in detail.
The second part describes a comprehensive experimental study of a new model spin-glass series LiHoxEr1-xF4, which combines the Ising anisotropy of ferromagnetic LiHoF4 with the XY anisotropy of antiferromagnetic LiErF4.
