Reply to the Comment on "Superspin Glass Mediated Giant Spontaneous Exchange Bias in BiFeO${}_3$-Bi${}_2$Fe${}_4$O${}_9$ Nanocomposite [Phys. Rev. Lett. 110, 107201 (2013)]"

Abstract

In this article we reply to the concerns raised by Harres $\text{et al}$. [Phys. Rev. Lett. (to be published)] about some of the results reported in our original paper [T. Maity $\text{et al}$. Phys. Rev. Lett. $\text{110}$, 107201 (2013)]. We show that the magnetic hysteresis loops are not minor and both path dependency of exchange bias and presence of superspin glass phase in the nanocomposite are indisputable.
