Kinetics of the spin-2 Blume-Capel model under a time-dependent oscillating external field

Within a mean-field approach and using the Glauber-type stochastic dynamics, we study the kinetics of the spin-2 Blume-Capel model in the presence of a time-varying (sinusoidal) magnetic field. We investigate the time dependence of the average order parameter and the behavior of the average order parameter in a period, which is also called the dynamic order parameter, as a function of the reduced temperature. The nature (continuous and discontinuous) of the transition is characterized by the dynamic order parameter. The dynamic phase transition points are obtained and the phase diagrams are presented in the reduced magnetic field amplitude and reduced temperature plane. The phase diagrams exhibit one dynamic tricritical point; besides a disordered and an ordered phases, there are three phase coexistence regions that are strongly dependent on the interaction parameter.

Mixed-Spin Ising Model in an Oscillating Magnetic Field and Compensation Temperature

Godoy et al. (Phys. Rev. B 69, 054428, 2004) presented a study of the magnetic properties of a mixed spin (1/2,1), Ising ferrimagnetic model on a hexagonal lattice without an oscillating magnetic field. They employed dynamic mean-field calculations and Monte Carlo simulations to find the compensation point of the model and to present the phase diagrams. It has been found that the N-type compensation temperature appears only when the intrasublattice interaction between spins in the σ sublattice is ferromagnetic. Moreover, the system only undergoes a second-order phase transition. In this work, we extend the study a dynamic compensation temperature of a mixed spin-1/2 and spin-1 Ising ferrimagnetic system on a hexagonal lattice in the presence of oscillating magnetic field within the framework of dynamic mean-field calculations. We find that the system displays the N-type compensation temperature. We also calculate dynamic phase diagrams in which contain the paramagnetic, ferrimagnetic, nonmagnetic fundamental phases and two different mixed phases, depending on the interaction parameters and oscillating magnetic field. The system also exhibits tricritical and reentrant behaviors.     

Dynamic phase transition in the kinetic spin-5/2 Blume–Emery–Griffiths model in an oscillating external magnetic field

Employing a mean-field approach, we study the stationary states of the kinetic spin-5/2 Blume–Emery–Griffiths (BEG) model under the presence of a time-varying (sinusoidal) magnetic field by using the Glauber-type stochastic dynamics. We employ the Glauber transition rates to construct the set of dynamic mean-field equations. We investigate the time variation in average order parameters to find the phases in the system, and the thermal behavior of the dynamic order parameters to characterize the nature (continuous or discontinuous) of the dynamic phase transtions and to the dynamic phase transition temperature. The dynamic phase diagrams are presented in three different planes. The phase diagrams contain the ferromagnetic-5/2, the ferromagnetic-3/2, the ferromagnetic-1/2, the ferroquadrupolar, and disordered fundamental phases. They also include the nine coexisting or mixed phases composed of binary and ternary combinations of fundamental phases that strongly depend on the interaction parameters. The phase diagrams display the critical end point, double critical end point, triple point, quadruple point, and one, two, or three special points and the dynamic tricritical point that depends on the interaction parameters.     

Phase diagrams of a nonequilibrium mixed spin-1/2 and spin-2 Ising ferrimagnetic system under a time-dependent oscillating magnetic field

We present phase diagrams for a nonequilibrium mixed spin-1/2 and spin-2 Ising ferrimagnetic system on a square lattice in the presence of a time dependent oscillating external magnetic field. We employ the Glauber transition rates to construct the mean-field dynamical equations. The time variation of the average magnetizations and the thermal behavior of the dynamic magnetizations are investigated, extensively. The nature (continuous or discontinuous) of the transitions is characterized by studying the thermal behaviors of the dynamic magnetizations. The dynamic phase transition points are obtained and the phase diagrams are presented in two different planes. Phase diagrams contain paramagnetic (p) and ferrimagnetic (i) phases, and one coexistence or mixed phase region, namely the i+p, that strongly depend on interaction parameters. The system exhibits the dynamic tricritical point and the reentrant behaviors.     

Dynamic phase transition in the kinetic Blume--Emery--Griffiths model: Phase diagrams in the temperature and interaction parameters planes

As a continuation of our previously published work, the dynamic phase transitions are studied further, within a mean-field approach, in the kinetic Blume--Emery--Griffiths model in the presence of a time varying (sinusoidal) magnetic field by using the Glauber-type stochastic dynamics. The dynamic phase transitions are obtained and the phase diagrams are constructed in two different planes, namely in the reduced temperature (T) and biquadratic interaction (k) plane and found eight fundamental types of phase diagrams for various values of reduced crystal-field interaction (d) and magnetic field amplitude (h), and in the (T,?d) plane and obtained six distinct topologies for different values of k and h. Phase diagrams exhibit one or two dynamic tricritical points and a dynamic double critical end point, dynamic triple and quadruple points, and besides disordered and ordered phases, three coexistence phase regions exist in which occurring of these strongly depend on the values of d, k and h.

We employ the Glauber transition rates to construct the set of mean-field dynamic equations. The time variation of the average magnetizations and the thermal behavior of the dynamic magnetizations are investigated, extensively. The nature (continuous or discontinuous) of the transitions is characterized by studying the thermal behaviors of the dynamic magnetizations. The DPT points are obtained and the phase diagrams are presented in two different planes. Phase diagrams contain four fundamental phases and three coexistence or mixed phases, which strongly depend on interaction parameters. The phase diagrams are discussed and a comparison is made with the results of the other mixed spin Ising systems.     

Dynamic phase transition and dynamic phase diagrams in the spin-5/2 Blume–Capel model under a time-dependent oscillating external field

We calculate the dynamic phase transition (DPT) temperatures and present the dynamic phase diagrams in the kinetic spin-5/2 Blume–Capel model under the presence of a time-dependent oscillating external magnetic field. First, we employ the Glauber transition rates to construct the mean-field dynamic equation. Then, we study the time variation of the average magnetization to find the phases in the system. We also investigate the behaviour of the dynamic magnetization to characterize the nature (continuous and discontinuous) of transition and to obtain the DPT points. We present the dynamic phase diagrams in two different planes. The phase diagrams include the ferromagnetic-5/2 (f_5/2), the ferromagnetic-1/2 (f_1/2) and paramagnetic (p) fundamental phases. In addition to these fundamental phases, we find 10 mixed phases, depending on the interaction parameters. The phase diagrams display many special points, such as a dynamic tricritical point, a double critical end point, a triple point and a quadruple point.     

The dynamic phase transition in the spin-1/2 Ising system within the path probability method

We study the dynamic phase transitions and present the dynamic phase diagrams of the spin-1/2 Ising system under the presence of a time-varying (sinusoidal) external magnetic field within the path probability method (PPM) of Kikuchi and we observe that the PPM gives exactly the same result as with the Glauber-type stochastic dynamics based on the mean-field theory (DMFT). We also investigate the influence of the rate constant on the dynamic phase diagrams in detail and five new and interesting dynamic phase diagrams are found. We notice that the derivation of the dynamic equations by using the PPM is more clear and easier than within the DMFT and the Glauber-type stochastic dynamics based on the effective-field theory (DEFT). The advantages and disadvantages of the PPM over the DMFT and DEFT are also discussed.

We present a study, within a mean-field approximation, of the dynamics of a spin-1 metamagnetic Ising system with bilinear and biquadratic interactions in the presence of a time-dependent oscillating external magnetic field. First, we employ the Glauber transition rates to construct the set of mean-field dynamic equations. Then, we study the time variation of the average order parameters to find the phases in the system. We also investigate the thermal behavior of dynamic order parameters to characterize the nature (first- or second-order) of the dynamic transitions. The dynamic phase transitions are obtained and the phase diagrams are constructed in two different the planes. The phase diagrams contain a disordered and ordered phases, and four different mixed phases that strongly depend on interaction parameters. Phase diagrams also display one or two dynamic tricritical points, a dynamic double critical end and dynamic quadruple points. A comparison is made with the results of the other metamagnetic Ising systems.     

Multicritical Dynamic Phase Diagrams and Dynamic Hysteresis Loops in a Mixed Spin-2 and Spin-5/2 Ising Ferrimagnetic System with Repulsive Biquadratic Coupling: Glauber Dynamic Approach

The stationary states of the kinetic mixed spin-2 and spin-5/2 Ising ferrimagnetic system with repulsive biquadratic coupling are examined within a mean-field approach under the presence of a time varying (sinusoidal) magnetic field. We employ Glauber-type stochastic dynamics to construct a set of coupled mean-field dynamic equations, and we solve these equations to find the phases in the system. We also investigate the thermal behavior of the dynamic order parameters to characterize the nature (continuous or discontinuous) of the dynamic phase transitions (DPTs) and obtain the DPT points. The phase diagrams are presented in the reduced magnetic field amplitude and reduced temperature plane, and a comparison is made with the results of other kinetic mixed spin systems. We also study the behavior of the dynamic magnetic hysteresis and investigate the effects of the frequency on hysteresis properties, and we find the results are in good agreement with some previous theoretical and experimental works.     

Multicritical dynamical phase diagrams of the kinetic Blume–Emery–Griffiths model with repulsive biquadratic coupling in an oscillating field

We study, within a mean-field approach, the stationary states of the kinetic Blume–Emery–Griffiths model with repulsive biquadratic coupling under the presence of a time-varying (sinusoidal) magnetic field. We employ the Glauber-type stochastic dynamics to construct set of dynamic equations of motion. The behavior of the time dependence of the order parameters and the behavior of the average order parameters in a period, which is also called the dynamic order parameters, as functions of the reduced temperature are investigated. The dynamic phase transition points are calculated and phase diagrams are presented in the reduced magnetic field amplitude and reduced temperature plane. The dynamical transition from one regime to the other can be of first- or second order depending on the region in the phase diagram. According to the values of the crystal field interaction or single-ion anisotropy constant and biquadratic exchange constant, we find 20 fundamental types of phase diagrams which exhibit many dynamic critical points, such as tricritical points, zero-temperature critical points, double critical end points, critical end point, triple point and multicritical point. Moreover, besides a disordered and ordered phases, seven coexistence phase regions exist in the system.     

Influences of Crystal-Field and Interlayer Coupling Interactions on Dynamic Phase Diagrams of a Mixed-Spin(3/2,2) Bilayer System

Influences of crystal-fields(D_A and D_B) and interlayer coupling interactions(J_3) on dynamic magnetic critical behaviors of a mixed-spin(3/2, 2) bilayer system under an oscillating magnetic field are investigated by the Glauber-type stochastic dynamics based on the mean-field theory. For this purpose, dynamic phase diagrams are constructed in the reduced temperature and magnetic field amplitude plane for the ferromagnetic/ferromagnetic(FM/FM),antiferromagnetic/ferromagnetic(AFM/FM) and AFM/AFM interactions in detail. We observe that the influences of D_A, D_B and J_3 interactions parameters on the behavior of the dynamic phase diagrams are very much.     

Dynamic behaviors of the hexagonal Ising nanowire

By utilizing the effective-field theory based on the Glauber-type stochastic dynamics, the dynamic behaviors of the hexagonal Ising nanowire (HIN) system in the presence of a time dependent magnetic field are obtained. The time variations of average order parameters and the thermal behavior of the dynamic order parameters are studied to analyze the nature of transitions and to obtain the dynamic phase transition points. The dynamic phase diagrams are introduced in the plane of the reduced temperature versus magnetic field amplitude. The dynamic phase diagrams exhibit coexistence phase region, several ordered phases and critical point as well as a reentrant behavior.     

Dynamic magnetic behavior of the mixed spin （2, 5/2） Ising system with antiferromagnetic/antiferromagnetic interactions on a bilayer square lattice

Using the mean-field theory and Glauber-type stochastic dynamics, we study the dynamic magnetic properties of the mixed spin （2, 5/2） Ising system for the antiferromagnetic/antiferromagnetic （AFM/AFM） interactions on the bilayer square lattice under a time varying （sinusoidal） magnetic field. The time dependence of average magnetizations and the thermal variation of the dynamic magnetizations are examined to calculate the dynamic phase diagrams. The dynamic phase diagrams are presented in the reduced temperature and magnetic field amplitude plane and the effects of interlayer coupling interaction on the critical behavior of the system are investigated. We also investigate the influence of the frequency and find that the system displays richer dynamic critical behavior for higher values of frequency than that of the lower values of it. We perform a comparison with the ferromagnetic/ferromagnetic （FM/FM） and AFM/FM interactions in order to see the effects of AFM/AFM interaction and observe that the system displays richer and more interesting dynamic critical behaviors for the AFM/AFM interaction than those for the FM/FM and AFM/FM interactions.     

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.     

Dynamic phase transitions and the effects of frequency of oscillating magnetic field on the dynamic phase diagrams in the bilayer honeycomb lattice with AB stacking geometry

We study some dynamic properties of the bilayer honeycomb lattice with AB stacking geometry in the presence of a time-dependent oscillating external magnetic field. We employ the Glauber transition rates to construct the mean-field dynamical equations. First, we obtain dynamic phases in the system and observe the paramagnetic (p), ferromagnetic (f), compensated (c) antiferromagnetic (af), surface ferromagnetic (sf) and mixed (m) phases. Besides, coexistence phase regions also exist in the system. Second, we investigate the thermal behavior of the dynamic order parameters. From these study, the natures (first- or second-order) of the transitions are characterized and the dynamic phase transition (DPT) points are presented. The DPTs are obtained and the dynamic phase diagrams (DPD) are constructed plane of the temperature versus the amplitude of the magnetic field. We investigate the effect of the frequency of the oscillating external magnetic field on the DPD.     

Dynamic magnetic hysteresis behavior and dynamic phase transition in the spin-1 Blume-Capel model

The nature (time variation) of response magnetization m(wt) of the spin-1 Blume-Capel model in the presence of a periodically varying external magnetic field h(wt) is studied by employing the effective-field theory (EFT) with correlations as well as the Glauber-type stochastic dynamics. We determine the time variations of m(wt) and h(wt) for various temperatures, and investigate the dynamic magnetic hysteresis behavior. We also investigate the temperature dependence of the dynamic magnetization, hysteresis loop area and correlation near the transition point in order to characterize the nature (first- or second-order) of the dynamic transitions as well as obtain the dynamic phase transition temperatures. The hysteresis loops are obtained for different reduced temperatures and we find that the areas of the loops are decreasing with the increasing of the reduced temperatures. We also present the dynamic phase diagrams and compare the results of the EFT with the results of the dynamic mean-field approximation. The phase diagrams exhibit many dynamic critical points, such as tricritical (•), zero-temperature critical (Z), triple (TP) and multicritical (A) points. According to values of Hamiltonian parameters, besides the paramagnetic (P), ferromagnetic (F) fundamental phases, one coexistence or mixed phase region, (F+P) and the reentrant behavior exist in the system. The results are in good agreement with some experimental and theoretical results.     

Magnetic properties of Ising metamagnet in both external longitudinal and transverse fields

The phase diagrams of a two-sublattice Ising metamagnet at finite temperature in a mixed longitudinal field and a transverse magnetic field are investigated by the use of an effective-field theory (EFT) with correlations. In addition to the second-order transition lines, the first-order transition lines are also presented in the phase diagrams, since the Gibbs free energy can be calculated numerically. The results show that there is no fourth-order critical line in the phase diagrams given by using EFT as found by using mean-field theory (MFT). The tricritical lines and their projection in the t−h_x plane obtained by using EFT are also quite different from those by using MFT. Only one type of phase diagram is obtained by using EFT while three kinds of phase diagrams are obtained by using MFT, which indicates that only the first kind of phase diagrams obtained by using MFT is reliable. Furthermore, it is shown that the region of first-order transitions increases as the transverse magnetic field h_x decreases.     

Phase transition properties for the kinetic Ising model in an oscillating magnetic field

The phase transition properties for the kinetic Ising model in a sinusoidally oscillating magnetic field are investigated by means of the mean-field calculations. The integrated phase diagrams for not only the amplitude of the oscillating field versus temperature but also the frequency of the oscillating field versus temperature have been calculated respectively, in which the discontinuous and continuous transitions are observed. Meanwhile the hysteresis loops in relation to the two kinds of the phase diagrams have been analyzed systematically, and the effects of the amplitude and the frequency of the oscillating field on the hysteresis loops are illustrated.

The nonequilibrium or dynamic phase transitions are studied, within a mean-field approach, in the kinetic Ising model on a two-layer square lattice consisting of spin- 1/2 ions in the presence of a time varying (sinusoidal) magnetic field has been studied by using Glauber-type stochastic dynamics. The dynamic equations of motion are obtained in terms of the intralayer coupling constants J₁ and J₂ for the first and second layer, respectively, and interlayer coupling constant J₃ between these two layers. The nature (first- or second-order) of the transitions is characterized by investigating the behavior of the thermal variations of the dynamic order parameters. The dynamic phase transitions are obtained and the dynamic phase diagrams are constructed in the plane of the reduced temperature versus the amplitude of the magnetic field and found fourteen fundamental types of phase diagrams. Phase diagrams exhibit one, two or three dynamic tricritical points for various values of J₂/|J₁| and J₃/|J₁|. Besides the paramagnetic (p), ferromagnetic (f) and compensated (c) phases, there were the f+c,f+sf,c+sf,af+p,m+p,f+m and c+af, where the af, sf and m are the antiferromagnetic, surface ferromagnetic and mixed phases respectively. Coexistence phase regions also exist in the system.
