Abstract: | The magnetic properties
of Heisenberg ferromagnetic films in an external magnetic field
are investigated by means of the variational cumulant expansion (VCE).
The magnetization can be in principle calculated analytically as the
function of the temperature and the number of atomic layers in
the film to an arbitrary order of accuracy in the VCE. We
calculate the spontaneous magnetization and coercivity
to the third order for spin-1/2 Heisenberg films with simple cubic
lattices by using a graphic technique. |
