The magnetic properties of a mixed spin-1 and spin-3/2 Heisenberg ferrimagnetic system on a square lattice are investigated by using the double-time temperature-dependent Green's function technique. In order to decouple the higher order Green's functions, Anderson and Callen's decoupling and random phase approximations have been used. The nearest- and next-nearest-neighbor interactions and the single-ion anisotropies are considered and their effects on compensation and critical temperature are studied.     

Spin compensation temperatures induced by longitudinal fields in a mixed spin-3/2 and spin-5/2 Ising ferrimagnet

I studied the ferrimagnetic Ising model with nearest neighbour interactions for a square lattice and simple cubic one, using mean field theory. The free energy of a mixed spin Ising ferrimagnetic model was calculated from a mean field approximation of the Hamiltonian. By minimizing the free energy, I obtained the equilibrium magnetizations and the compensation temperatures. Clear indications of the single-ion anisotropies on the compensation points of the mixed spin-3/2 and spin-5/2 ferrimagnetic lattices are found. Some interesting behaviors of these systems are obtained depending not only on the values of magnetic anisotropies for both sublattice sites but also on the lattice structure. The longitudinal magnetic fields dependence of the spin compensation temperature is the main focus of research. The possibility of many compensation temperatures is indicated.

Particular attention is focused on the effect of uniaxial and biaxial single-ion anisotropies that basically influence the magnetic behavior of the spin-1 atoms.

The phase diagram of mixed spin-3/2 and spin-2 Ising ferromagnetic model with different single-ion anisotropies is investigated by the use of a mean-field theory based on the Bogoliubov inequality for the Gibbs free energy. Global phase diagrams are obtained in the temperature-anisotropy plane. In particular, by changing values of the single-ion anisotropies, several different types of phase diagrams of first-order transition between two ordered phases, are studied in detail. A variety of multicritical points such as tricritical points, isolated critical points, and triple points are obtained.

Magnetic Properties of a Mixed Spin-2 and Spin-5/2 Heisenberg Ferrimagnetic System on a Two-Dimensional Honeycomb Lattice： Green＇s Function Approach

The multisublattice Green＇s function technique is applied to study the magnetic properties of a mixed spin-2 and spin-5/2 Heisenberg ferrimagnetic system on a two-dimensional honeycomb lattice. The role of the different interactions in the Hamiltonian is explored. When only the nearest-neighbor interaction and the single-ion anisotropy are included, our results indicate that there are compensation points at finite temperatures. When the next-nearest-neighbor interaction exceeds a minimum value that depends on the other parameters in the Hamiltonian, the compensation point disappears. The next-nearest-neighbor interaction has the effect of changing the compensation temperature.     

The paramagnetic properties of one-dimensional spin-1 single-ion anisotropic ferromagnet

One-dimensional single-ion anisotropic ferromagnet with spin-1 is investigated by means of Green's function treatment in this paper. The model Hamiltonian includes a Heisenberg ferromagnetic term, an external magnetic field, and a second-order single-ion anisotropy. The magnetic properties of the system are treated by the random phase approximation for the exchange interaction term and the Anderson-Callen approximation for the anisotropy term. Our paramagnetic results are in agreement with the other theoretical results.     

Numerical study of the mixed spin-1 and spin-5/2 BEG model on the Bethe lattice

The mixed spin-1 and spin- \frac52\frac{5}{2} ferromagnetic Ising model with bilinear (J) and biquadratic (K) nearest-neighbor exchange interactions and a single-ion potential or crystal-field interaction (D) is studied on the Bethe lattice by means of exact recursion equations. First, the phase diagram of the system at zero temperature is obtained in the (D/Jq, K/Jq) plane, where q denotes the coordination number of the lattice. Second, the sublattice magnetizations as functions of the temperature, the crystal-field and the biquadratic interaction strengths are thoroughly investigated. For q = 3, the resulting phase diagrams show first and second order phase transitions as well as compensation points where the net magnetization of the whole lattice should vanish in the antiferromagnetic version of the model. One interesting feature of the model concerns the presence of tricritical points. Our calculations show that at non-zero temperature, none of the sublattice can order separately. However, under an external magnetic field, some interesting phase diagrams with partially ordered phases arise.     

The effective-field theory studies of critical phenomena in a mixed spin-1 and spin-2 Ising model on honeycomb and square lattices

An effective-field theory with correlations has been used to study critical behaviors of a mixed spin-1 and spin-2 Ising system on a honeycomb and square lattices in the absence and presence of a longitudinal magnetic field. The ground-state phase diagram of the model is obtained in the longitudinal magnetic field (h) and a single-ion potential or crystal-field interaction (Δ) plane. The thermal behavior of the sublattice magnetizations of the system are investigated to characterize the nature of (continuous and discontinuous) of the phase transitions and obtain the phase transition temperature. The phase diagrams are presented in the (Δ/|J|, k_BT/|J|) plane. The susceptibility, internal energy and specific heat of the system are numerically examined and some interesting phenomena in these quantities are found due to the absence and presence of the applied longitudinal magnetic field. Moreover, the system undergoes second- and first-order phase transition; hence, the system gives a tricritical point. The system also exhibits reentrant behavior.     

Magnetic properties of an anti-ferromagnetic and ferrimagnetic mixed spin-1/2 and spin-5/2 Ising model in the longitudinal magnetic field within the effective-field approximation

The magnetic properties of an anti-ferromagnetic and ferrimagnetic mixed spin-1/2 and spin-5/2 Ising model with a crystal field in a longitudinal magnetic field on the honeycomb (z=3) and square lattice (z=4) are studied by using the effective-field theory with correlations. The ground state phase diagram of the model is obtained in the longitudinal magnetic field (h) and a single-ion potential or crystal-field interaction (Δ) plane. We also investigate the thermal variations of the sublattice and total magnetizations, and present the phase diagrams in the (Δ/|J|, ) plane. The phase diagrams have one, two or even three compensation temperatures depending on the values of the crystal-field interaction. Moreover, the susceptibility, internal energy and specific heat of the system are numerically examined, and some interesting phenomena in these quantities are found due to the applied longitudinal magnetic field.     

Spin compensation temperatures in the mean-field approximation of a mixed spin-2 and spin-5/2 Ising ferrimagnetic system

The magnetic behaviors of a mixed spin-2 and spin-5/2 Ising ferrimagnetic system on a square lattice are studied with the mean-field approximation (MFA) based on the Bogoliubov inequality for the free energy. A Landau expansion of the free energy in the order parameter is also described in this work. In particular, we investigate the effect of a single-ion anisotropy on the compensation phenomenon.     

The kinetic spin-1 Blume-Capel model with Glauber dynamic

We study the dynamic phase transitions (DPT), within a mean-field approach, in the kinetic spin-1 Blume-Capel model by using the Glauber-type stochastic dynamics. The nature of the transition is characterized by investigating the behavior of the thermal variation of the dynamic order parameter and the Lyapunov exponent. The phase diagram is constructed in the temperatures (T) and single-ion anisotropy amplitude (D) plane. Our results predict first-order transitions at low temperature and large anisotropy strengths, which correspond in the phase diagram to the existence of a nonequilibrium tricritical point (TCP). We compare our results with the equilibrium phase diagram.     

Dynamic compensation temperatures in a mixed spin-1 and spin-3/2 Ising system under a time-dependent oscillating magnetic field

We study the existence of dynamic compensation temperatures in the mixed spin-1 and spin-3/2 Ising ferrimagnetic system Hamiltonian with bilinear and crystal-field interactions in the presence of a time-dependent oscillating external magnetic field on a hexagonal lattice. We employ the Glauber transitions rates to construct the mean-field dynamic equations. We investigate the time dependence of an average sublattice magnetizations, the thermal behavior of the dynamic sublattice magnetizations and the total magnetization. From these studies, we find the phases in the system, and characterize the nature (continuous or discontinuous) of transitions as well as obtain the dynamic phase transition (DPT) points and the dynamic compensation temperatures. We also present dynamic phase diagrams, including the compensation temperatures, in the five different planes. A comparison is made with the results of the available mixed spin Ising systems.     

Mean-Field Studies of a Mixed Spin-3/2 and Spin-2 and a Mixed Spin-3/2 and Spin-5/2 Ising System with Different Anisotropies

The magnetic properties of a mixed spin-3/2 and spin-2 and a mixed spin-3/2and spin-5/2 Ising ferromagnetic system with different anisotropies are studied by means of mean-field theory (MFT). The dependence of the phase diagram on single-ion anisotropy strengths is studied too. In the mixed spin-3/2 and spin-2 Ising model, besides the second-order phase transition, the first order-disorder phase transition and the tricritical line are found. In the mixed spin-3/2 and spin-5/2 Ising model, there is no first-order transition and tricritical line.     

The effect of anisotropies on the transition temperature in a spin-1/2 and spin-3/2 bilayer system with disordered interfaces

Transition temperatures of a bilayer system with A₂ (A_pB_1−p)₁ (B)₂ consisting periodically of two layers of spin-1/2 A atoms, two layers of spin-3/2 B atoms and an interface with alloying-type (A_pB_1−p) disorder are examined by the use of the effective-field theory superior to the standard mean-field theory. In particular, the effects of different single-ion anisotropies in the bulk B layers and disordered interfaces on the transition temperature are clarified. Some interesting behaviours are obtained, depending on the values of anisotropies and exchange interactions in the disordered interfaces and bulk layers.     

Nanoparticle with a ferrimagnetic interlayer coupling in the presence of single-ion anisotropis

The magnetic properties of a nanoparticle described by the transverse Ising model with single-ion anisotropis, which consists of a concentric spin-3/2 core and a hexagonal ring spin-5/2 shell coupled with a ferrimamagnetic interlayer coupling, are studied by the effective-field theory with self-spin correlations. Particular emphasis is given to the effects of the both the transverse field and the single-ion anisotropis on the longitudinal and transverse magnetizations, phase diagrams of the nanoparticle. We have found that, for appropriate values of the system parameters, one or two compensation points may be obtained in the present systems.     

Ground-state magnetic properties of the spin-2 transverse Ising model

The ground-state magnetic properties of the spin-2 transverse Ising model with a longitudinal crystal field are studied within the framework of mean-field theory (MFT) and effective-field theory (EFT), respectively. The phase diagrams and magnetization curves are examined in detail. It is found that the system exhibits a tricritical behavior in the ground-state phase diagrams. Some interesting phenomena have been found, especially the first-order phase transition from one ordered phase to the other ordered phase, which is due to the high spin. The spin correlation has important effect on the magnetic properties of the system. We also find that the ground-state phase diagrams of the spin-2 transverse Ising model are very different from those of the spin-3/2 transverse Ising model.     

Identification of intrinsic gapped behavior in spin-1/2 ladder with staggered dimerization

The zero- and low-temperature behaviors of spin-1/2 two-leg ladder with staggered dimerization are investigated by the Green’s function theory. At zero temperature, the ground state phase diagram is explored, wherein the leg-dimer and rung-singlet phases are revealed, which reflect two different intrinsic gapped behaviors. The former is attributed to the bond alternation along the legs, while the latter is due to the strong rung coupling. It is found that the quantum phase transition from one to another is of the first order, which can be clearly signaled by the rung entanglement entropy. At finite temperatures, the temperature dependence of thermodynamic quantities such as the magnetic susceptibility, specific heat, thermal Drude weight and rung entanglement entropy are calculated to characterize the corresponding quantum phases. It is shown that the magnetic behaviors clearly manifest a typical antiferromagnetism at low temperature, which is in accordance with the experimental results. It is also found that the intrinsic gapped low-lying excitations are responsible for the observed thermodynamic behaviors.     

Self-consistent many-body theory for the standard basis operator Green's functions

We propose a self-consistent many-body theory for the standard basis operator Green's functions and obtain an exact Dyson-type matrix equation for the interacting many-level systems. A zeroth order approximation, which neglects all the damping effects, is investigated in detail for the anisotropic Heisenberg model, the isotropic quadrupolar system and the Hubbard model. In the case of the anisotropic Heisenberg ferromagnet with both exchange and single-ion anisotropy the low-temperature renormalization of the spin-waves for the uniaxial ordering agrees with the Bloch-Dyson theory. For the spin-1 easy-plane ferromagnet, the critical parameters for the phase transition at zero temperature are determined and compared with other theories. The elementary excitation spectrum of the spin-1 isotropic quadrupolar system is calculated and compared with the random phase approximation and Callen-like decoupling schemes. Finally, the theory is applied to the study of the single-particle excitation spectrum of the Hubbard model.
