Abstract

We analyze recent data on the complex inductance of dc SQUIDs that show 1/f inductance noise highly correlated with conventional 1/f flux noise. We argue that these data imply a formation of long range order in fractal spin structures. We show that these structures appear naturally in a random system of spins with wide distribution of spin-spin interactions. We perform numerical simulations on the simplest model of this type and show that it exhibits 1/f1+ζ magnetization noise with small exponent ζ and reproduces the correlated behavior observed experimentally.
