Abstract

Magnetic field dependence of magnetization of poly(phenyl)acetylene which is known to show spin-glass-like behavior was studied at temperatures between 2 K and 300 K. Peculiar dependence of magnetization on the history of applied magnetic field, particularly the number of measurement cycles, is reported. The origin of these phenomena is discussed with respect to a possible mechanism of metastability.
