Orbital Glass in FeCr2S4
  Low-temperature heat-capacity investigations on the spinel FeCr2S4 with ferrimagnetic spin order and orbitally degenerated Jahn-Teller active Fe2+ ions in a tetrahedral crystal field, provide experimental evidence of an orbital liquid state above 10 K. We demonstrate that the low-temperature transition at 10 K arises from orbital order and is very sensitive to fine tuning of the stoichiometry in polycrystals. In single crystals the orbital order is fully suppressed resulting in an orbital glass state with the heat capacity following a strict T^2 dependence as temperature approaches zero.
