Abstract
ABSTRACT The ferrimagnetic-ferromagnetic-ferrimagnetic quaternary alloy consisting of the spins , , and in the form of with B, C and D being the possible nearest-neighbors of A with the probabilities p, q and r, respectively, is investigated in terms of the mean field theory (MFT) based on the Bogoliubov inequality for free energy. The thermal behaviors of magnetizations belonging to the individual spins and total magnetization are examined in detail to map the possible phase diagrams on various planes. It was found that the model only exhibits second-order phase transitions in addition to one compensation temperature for appropriate values of the system parameters. In order to support the existence of the compensation temperatures, we have also carried out the Monte Carlo (MC) simulations and an agreement was shown with the predicted result of the MFT approach. We have also analyzed the effects of the bilinear interaction parameter between type-A atoms and the exchange interaction parameter ratio ( is the bilinear interaction parameter between type-A atoms and type-X atoms with X = C or D) on compensation temperatures. Our findings are compared to those reported in the literature and suitable agreements are observed.
期刊介绍:
Phase Transitions is the only journal devoted exclusively to this important subject. It provides a focus for papers on most aspects of phase transitions in condensed matter. Although emphasis is placed primarily on experimental work, theoretical papers are welcome if they have some bearing on experimental results. The areas of interest include:
-structural phase transitions (ferroelectric, ferroelastic, multiferroic, order-disorder, Jahn-Teller, etc.) under a range of external parameters (temperature, pressure, strain, electric/magnetic fields, etc.)
-geophysical phase transitions
-metal-insulator phase transitions
-superconducting and superfluid transitions
-magnetic phase transitions
-critical phenomena and physical properties at phase transitions
-liquid crystals
-technological applications of phase transitions
-quantum phase transitions
Phase Transitions publishes both research papers and invited articles devoted to special topics. Major review papers are particularly welcome. A further emphasis of the journal is the publication of a selected number of small workshops, which are at the forefront of their field.
