Properties of small antiferromagnetic Ising clusters
1997
Magnetic properties of small antiferromagnetic clusters have been studied by using the Ising model with nearest-neighbour interactions. The number of atoms in the clusters varied between 6 and 30. Several cluster geometries were analysed in detail with the result that there is no generic phase diagram. In an external magnetic field magnetisation can increase with increasing temperature in a considerable temperature range. Magnetisation was found to strongly depend on both the overall geometry of the cluster and on the symmetry of the underlaying lattice structure.
Wetting transitions near the bulk critical point: Monte Carlo simulations for the Ising model
1989
Critical, tricritical, and first-order wetting transitions are studied near the bulk critical point of a simple cubic nearest-neighbor Ising model by extensive Monte Carlo simulations. The model applies an exchange J in the bulk and exchange ${J}_{s}$ in the surface planes, where surface fields ${H}_{1}$ also act in addition to a possible bulk field H. Lattices in a thin-film geometry L\ifmmode\times\else\texttimes\fi{}L\ifmmode\times\else\texttimes\fi{}D are used, with two free L\ifmmode\times\else\texttimes\fi{}L surfaces (with L up to 256) and film thickness D up to 160, applying a very fast fully vectorizing multispin coding program. Our results present the first quantitative evidence f…
Corner wetting in the two-dimensional Ising model: Monte Carlo results
2003
Square L ? L (L = 24?128) Ising lattices with nearest neighbour ferromagnetic exchange are considered using free boundary conditions at which boundary magnetic fields ? h are applied, i.e., at the two boundary rows ending at the lower left corner a field +h acts, while at the two boundary rows ending at the upper right corner a field ?h acts. For temperatures T less than the critical temperature Tc of the bulk, this boundary condition leads to the formation of two domains with opposite orientations of the magnetization direction, separated by an interface which for T larger than the filling transition temperature Tf (h) runs from the upper left corner to the lower right corner, while for T …
Wetting and layering in the nearest-neighbor simple-cubic Ising lattice: A Monte Carlo investigation.
1988
Critical, tricritical, and first-order wetting transitions are studied in a simple-cubic nearest-neighbor Ising model, with exchange J in the bulk and exchange ${J}_{s}$ in the surface planes, by applying suitable bulk and surface fields H and ${H}_{1}$. Monte Carlo calculations are presented for systems of size L\ifmmode\times\else\texttimes\fi{}L\ifmmode\times\else\texttimes\fi{}D, in a thin film geometry with D=40 layers and two free L\ifmmode\times\else\texttimes\fi{}L surfaces, with L ranging from L=10 to L=50. In addition, evidence for prewetting transitions and for layering transitions (the latter occur for temperatures T less than the roughening temperature ${T}_{R}$) is presented. …
Pressure-induced electron transfer in ferrimagnetic Prussian blue analogs
2003
M\"ossbauer and magnetic susceptibility measurements were performed under pressure on three Prussian blue analogs, ${\mathrm{K}}_{0.1}{\mathrm{Co}}_{4}[{\mathrm{Fe}(\mathrm{CN})}_{6}{]}_{2.7}\ensuremath{\cdot}18{\mathrm{H}}_{2}\mathrm{O},$ ${\mathrm{K}}_{0.28}{\mathrm{Co}}_{4}[{\mathrm{Fe}(\mathrm{CN})}_{6}{]}_{2.76}\ensuremath{\cdot}18{\mathrm{H}}_{2}\mathrm{O},$ and ${\mathrm{Cs}}_{0.7}{\mathrm{Co}}_{4}[{\mathrm{Fe}(\mathrm{CN})}_{6}{]}_{2.9}\ensuremath{\cdot}16{\mathrm{H}}_{2}\mathrm{O}.$ A pressure-induced electron transfer ${\mathrm{Co}}^{2+}(S=\frac{3}{2})\ensuremath{-}{\mathrm{Fe}}^{3+}(S=\frac{1}{2})\ensuremath{\rightarrow}{\mathrm{Co}}^{3+}(S=0)\ensuremath{-}{\mathrm{Fe}}^{2+}(S=0)…
Classical Heisenberg antiferromagnets with nearest and next-nearest neighbor interactions on the face-centered cubic lattice: a model for EuTe?
1989
Magnetic properties of the Heisenberg antiferromagnet with spin quantum numberS→∞ on the face-centered cubic lattice are studied as function of temperature and magnetic field, using molecular field approximation and Monte Carlo methods. In order to model Europiumtelluride, we use isotropic exchange interactions between nearest- and nextnearest neighbors; the values of these exchange constants are taken from experiments. In addition, a pseudo-dipolar anisotropy (truncated after the next-nearest neighbor distance) is included; the molecular field calculations also are performed with the full dipolar of real EuTe in two respects: the structure in zero magnetic field involves 8 sublattices in t…
Ultrafast Spin Dynamics in Antiferromagnets
2018
Antiferromagnets are promising materials for spintronics because they show fast magnetic dynamics, low susceptibility to magnetic fields, and produce no stray fields. In addition, the antiferromagnetic dynamics can be efficiently manipulated by spin and charge currents. Here we discuss spin and/or charge current induced dynamics of the antiferromagnetic textures (domain walls, skyrmions) and nanoparticles. We consider and analyse four types of torques which (spin) current can generate in an antiferromagnet with two magnetic sublattices. These torques can be classified as the staggered/nonstaggered (S/ NS) according to the effective spin accumulation at the magnetic sublattices and the field…
The Statistical Description of de Haas—van Alphen Oscillations in Silicon Nanosandwich
2020
Here, we present room temperature de Haas—van Alphen oscillations measured in silicon nanosandwich in a weak magnetic field. Our results demonstrate a decrease of the oscillation magnitude with increasing magnetic field strength. This behavior is drastically different from the results reported earlier and it is attributed to the low-dimensionality of the studied structure, which enables room temperature observation of the de Haas—van Alphen effect in moderate magnetic fields up to 1000 Oe. We employ the classic Lifshitz-Kosevich formalism based on the dependence of the carrier effective mass on the applied magnetic field, to statistically describe this effect. We note that the statistical a…
Ferromagnetism in small clusters.
1991
Magnetization of small ferromagnetic clusters at finite temperatures has been studied using the Ising model and Monte Carlo techniques. The magnetization of finite clusters is reduced from the bulk value, and increases with the external magnetic field and with the cluster size. The results explain qualitatively the recent observations by de Heer, Milani, and Chatelain of the reduction with decreasing cluster size of the average magnetic moment in small iron clusters.
Butterfly hysteresis curves generated by adiabatic Landau-Zener transitions
2006
Butterfly hysteresis curves observed in dynamical magnetization measurements on systems of low-spin magnetic molecules such as ${\mathrm{V}}_{15}$ can be explained by the interplay of adiabatic Landau-Zener transitions and relaxation. We investigate the magnetization dynamics analytically in the basis of the adiabatic energy levels of the spin $1∕2$, to a qualitative accordance with experimental observations. In particular, reversible behavior is found near zero field, the corresponding susceptibility being bounded by the equilibrium and adiabatic susceptibilities.
