| contents | Abstract We study the temperature dependence of the absorption of microwaves by random-anisotropy magnets. It is governed by strong metastability due to the broad distribution of energy barriers separating different spin configurations. At a low microwave power, when the heating is negligible, the spin dynamics is close to linear. It corresponds to the precession of ferromagnetically ordered regions that are in resonance with the microwave field. Previously we have shown (doi.org/10.1103/PhysRevB.103.214414) that in this regime a dielectric substance packed with random magnets would be a strong microwave absorber in a broad frequency range. Here we demonstrate that on increasing the power, heating and over barrier spin transitions come into play, resulting in the nonlinear behavior. At elevated temperatures the absorption of microwave power decreases dramatically, making the dielectric substance with random magnets transparent for the microwaves. |
