Abstract: | The magnetic behaviors of ferromagnetic single-walled nanotubes are systematically investigated by use of the many-body Green's function method of quantum statistical theory. The spontaneous magnetization, absolute value of ferromagnetic energy, area of hysteresis loop and coercivity increase with diameter of the tubes and spin quantum number, and decrease with temperature. Curie temperature increases with diameter and spin quantum number. As the diameter of the tube tends to infinity, all the numerical results approach to those of a two-dimensional monolayer. The dependences of initial susceptibility on temperature and diameter below and above Curie point are contrary. The calculated results are compared with experimental results where possible, and are qualitatively in agreement with the latter. The Curie temperature is determined by the tube diameter and independent of rolling helicities. |
