dc.descriptionWe have studied the thermodynamics of the stuffed spin ice material, Dy2(DyxTi2-x)O7-x/2, in which additional Dy3+ replace Ti4+ in the pyrochlore Dy2Ti2O7. Heat capacity measurements indicate that these materials lose the spin ice zero point entropy for x >= 0.3, sharply contrasting with results on the analogous Ho materials. A finite ac susceptibility is observed as T ~ 0 in both the Ho and Dy materials with x = 0.67, which suggests that spin fluctuations persist down to T ~ 0. We propose that both the entropy and susceptibility data may be explained as a result of domains of local pyrochlore type structural order in these materials.
