Aging behavior of spin glasses under bond and temperature perturbations from laser illumination

We have studied the nonequilibrium dynamics of spin glasses subjected to bond perturbation, which was based on the direct change in the spin-spin interaction $ΔJ$, using photo illumination in addition to temperature change $ΔT$. Differences in time-dependent magnetization are observed between that under $ΔT+ΔJ$ and $ΔT$ perturbations with the same $ΔT$. This differences shows the contribution of $ΔJ$ to spin-glass dynamics through the decrease in the overlap length. That is, the overlap length $L_{ΔT+ΔJ}$ under $ΔT+ΔJ$ perturbation is less than $L_{ΔT}$ under $ΔT$ perturbation. Furthermore, we observe the crossover between weakly and strongly perturbed regimes under bond cycling accompanied by temperature cycling. These effects of bond perturbation strongly indicates the existence of both chaos and the overlap length.
