Monte Carlo Simulations of the Magnetic Behavior, Ordering Temperature and Magnetocaloric Effects in 1D, 2D and 3D Ferrimagnetic Systems

J Nanosci Nanotechnol. 2015 Jan;15(1):263-8. doi: 10.1166/jnn.2015.8416.

Abstract

As for the systematic investigations of magnetic behaviors and its related properties, computer simulations in extended quantum spin networks have been performed in good conditions via the generalized Ising model using the Monte Carlo-Metropolis algorithm with proven efficiencies. The present work, starting from a real magnetic system, provides detailed insights into the finite size effects and the ferrimagnetic properties in various 1 D, 2D and 3D geometries such as the magnetic moment, ordering temperature, and magnetocaloric effects with the different values of spins localized on the different coordinated sites.
