Abstract

We use Monte Carlo and transfer matrix methods in combination with extrapolation schemes to determine the phase diagram of the two-dimensional superantiferromagnetic (SAF) Ising model with next-nearest-neighbor (NNN) interactions in a magnetic field. The interactions between nearest-neighbor (NN) spins are ferromagnetic along x, and antiferromagnetic along Y. We find that for sufficiently low temperatures and fields, there exists a region limited by a critical line of second-order transitions separating a SAF phase from a magnetically induced paramagnetic phase. We did not find any region with either first-order transition or with reentrant behavior. The NNN couplings produce either an expansion or a contraction of the SAF phase. Expansion occurs when the interactions are antiferromagnetic, and contraction when they are ferromagnetic. There is a critical ratio R(c)=1/2 between NNN and NN couplings, beyond which the SAF phase no longer exists.

Phase Transition in 2D Anisotropic Ising Model with Next-Nearest Neighbor Interactions in a Magnetic Field

D. Farsal, M. Badia, Mohamed Bennai

The critical behavior at the phase transition of the ferromagnetic two-dimensional anisotropic Ising model with next-nearest neighbor (NNN) couplings in the presence of the field is determined using mainly Monte Carlo (MC) method. This method is used to investigate the phase diagram of the model and to verify the existence of a divergence at null temperature which often appears in two-dimensional systems. We analyze also the influence of the report of the NNN interactions [Formula: see text] and the magnetic field [Formula: see text] on the critical temperature of the system, and we show that the critical temperature depends on the magnetic field for positive values of the interaction. Finally, we have investigated other thermodynamical qualities such as the magnetic susceptibility [Formula: see text]. It has been shown that their thermal behavior depends qualitatively and quantitatively on the strength of NNN interactions and the magnetic field.

Phase transitions and critical characteristics in the layered antiferromagnetic Ising model with next-nearest-neighbor intralayer interactions

Рамазанов Магомедшейх Курбанович, Akai Kurbanovich Murtazaev

Phase transitions and critical characteristics of the layered antiferromagnetic Ising model in the case of a cubic lattice with next-nearest-neighbor intralayer interactions are studied in the framework of the Monte Carlo method implementing the replica algorithm. The characteristics of the phase transitions are analyzed within the histogram method and with the Binder cumulants. For the model under study, it is found that the transition from the superantiferromagnetic phase to the paramagnetic one is a second order phase transition. The static critical exponents for the specific heat α, susceptibility γ, order parameter β, correlation radius ν, and the Fisher exponent η are calculated using the finite-size scaling theory. It is shown that the three-dimensional Ising model for the cubic lattice with next-nearest-neighbor interactions belongs to the same universality class of critical behavior as the completely frustrated three-dimensional Ising model.

Study of a square-lattice Ising superantiferromagnet using the Wang–Landau algorithm and partition function zeros

Jae Hwan Lee, Hyun Suk Song, J. M. Kim +1 more

We study the square-lattice Ising model with nearest-neighbor ( J 1 ) and next nearest-neighbor ( J 2 ) interactions, using the Wang–Landau Monte Carlo algorithm and the partition function zeros in the complex temperature plane (Fisher zeros). Here, the competition between J 1 and J 2 interactions is defined by the coupling ratio R = J 2 / J 1 . For J 2 > 0, the critical behavior is trivial and is the same as the square-lattice Ising model with only J 1 interaction. On the other hand, the new phase of superantiferromagnet appears for J 2 < 0. However, the nature of the transition into the superantiferromagnetic phase is still controversial in the literature. To resolve the controversy, we estimate the critical temperature T c ( R ) and thermal scaling exponent y t ( R ) from the Fisher zeros, as a function of R . The estimated values of T c ( R ) agree well with the results in the literature. We obtain the simple critical behavior with a fixed value of the thermal scaling exponent, y t ( R ) = 1, for and J 2 < 0 (Ising antiferromagnet). For and J 2 < 0 (Ising superantiferromagnet), however, it is shown that y t ( R ) continuously varies depending on R values, and the estimated values of y t ( R ) are clearly less than that of the first-order phase transition, y t = 2.

Phase diagram and critical behavior of the square-lattice Ising model with competing nearest-neighbor and next-nearest-neighbor interactions

Junqi Yin, David Paul Landau

Using the parallel tempering algorithm and graphics processing unit accelerated techniques, we have performed large-scale Monte Carlo simulations of the Ising model on a square lattice with antiferromagnetic (repulsive) nearest-neighbor and next-nearest-neighbor interactions of the same strength and subject to a uniform magnetic field. Both transitions from the (2x1) and row-shifted (2x2) ordered phases to the paramagnetic phase are continuous. From our data analysis, re-entrance behavior of the (2x1) critical line and a bicritical point which separates the two ordered phases at T=0 are confirmed. Based on the critical exponents we obtained along the phase boundary, Suzuki's weak universality seems to hold.

Phase transitions and thermodynamic properties of antiferromagnetic Ising model with next-nearest-neighbor interactions on the Kagomé lattice

We study phase transitions and thermodynamic properties in the two-dimensional antiferromagnetic Ising model with next-nearest-neighbor interaction on a Kagomé lattice by Monte Carlo simulations. A histogram data analysis shows that a second-order transition occurs in the model. From the analysis of obtained data, we can assume that next-nearest-neighbor ferromagnetic interactions in two-dimensional antiferromagnetic Ising model on a Kagomé lattice excite the occurrence of a second-order transition and unusual behavior of thermodynamic properties on the temperature dependence.

Study of the Two-Dimensional Anisotropic Ising Model with Competing Interactions in the Region of a Transition from the Ferromagnetic to Paramagnetic State

Akai Kurbanovich Murtazaev, Zhavrail G. Ibaev

Abstract The two-dimensional anisotropic Ising model with competing interactions in the region of a transition from the ferromagnetic to paramagnetic phase has been studied by the Monte Carlo method using the Wang–Landau algorithm. State density distributions have been obtained and the order parameters corresponding to different energies have been calculated. The temperature dependences of the thermodynamic parameters including the internal energy, magnetization, free energy, entropy, specific heat at constant magnetization, and Binder cumulants have been calculated. Using the Binder cumulant method and histogram analysis, it has been shown that a single second-order phase transition from the ferromagnetic to paramagnetic phase occurs at two exchange coupling constants ratios |J1/J| = 0.1 and 0.2 in the two-dimensional anisotropic next-nearest neighbor Ising model. The phase transition temperatures have been calculated. The main critical exponents have been determined using the finite-size scaling theory.
