Transverse Ising Model with Diluted Surface and Modified Surface-Bulk Coupling

T. Lahcini, Noureddine Benayad

Published Apr 1, 2009• 0 citations

Abstract

The transverse Ising system with a diluted surface and a modified surface-bulk interaction J(subscript ┴) is studied by the use of an effective field method within the framework of a single-site cluster theory. The surface antiferromagnetic exchange interaction JS is distributed randomly and has a concentration p. The new parameter p strongly affects the phase diagram obtained in the pure case (p=1). Indeed, some qualitatively interesting features have been found, both in the absence and in the presence of the surface transverse field. In particular, we defined a critical value p(superscript *) of p, separating two qualitatively different behaviors of the system.

Surface phase transitions of the transverse Ising model with modified surface–bulk coupling

T. Lahcini, Noureddine Benayad

The phase diagram of the three-dimensional transverse Ising system with antiferromagnetic intrasurface J S and surface–bulk J ⊥ interactions modified with respect to the ferromagnetic bulk exchange interaction J B is studied by the use of an effective field method in the framework of a single-site cluster theory. In this investigation, the state equations are derived by means of differential operator technique. Using these coupled equations within the four-layer approximation, it has been shown that the new parameter J ⊥ strongly affects the phase diagram obtained recently in the case J ⊥ = J B. Indeed, our calculations reveal some qualitatively interesting features both in the absence and in the presence of the surface and bulk transverse fields.

The diluted transverse Ising model with competing bulk and surface ordering

L. Khaya, Noureddine Benayad, A. Dakhama

Abstract The phase diagram of the three‐dimensional transverse Ising system with competing surface and bulk exchange interactions is studied by the use of an effective‐field method within the framework of a single‐site cluster theory. In addition to this pure case, which shows qualitatively interesting features, we investigated the effects of the bond dilution on the obtained phase diagram. In particular, we studied the influence of the surface dilution parameter on the surface transitions. We find a number of characteristic behaviours of the surface both in the absence and in the presence of the surface transverse field. (© 2004 WILEY‐VCH Verlag GmbH & Co. KGaA, Weinheim)

Surface magnetism of a transverse Ising model with disordered surface

I. Tamura, Enaldo F. Sarmento, T. Kaneyoshi

Within the framework of an effective-field theory with correlation evaluated for the Ising model with transverse field, the authors discuss the following cases: a diluted ferromagnetic square lattice with a transverse field; the magnetic behaviour of a transverse Ising model with diluted surface in a simple cubic lattice; and the surface magnetism of random transverse field at the surface. The surface magnetism is examined as a function of Delta =(J s /J)-1, the concentrations p and q of magnetic atoms at the surface, and Omega s and Omega b , the surface and bulk transverse field respectively. The phase diagrams for surface ordering are obtained and some characteristic behaviours of magnetism at the diluted surface are presented. The present framework is quite superior to the standard MFA, and whenever comparison is possible a satisfactory qualitative (and to a certain extent quantitative) agreement with results available in the literature is found.

The Spin-1/2 Ising Film in a Random Transverse Field

A. Moutie, M. Kerouad, B. Laaboudi

The critical behaviour of the spin-1/2 Ising film in a random transverse field has been studied by the use of an effective field method within the framework of a single cluster theory. The equations are derived using a probability distribution method. The effect of the ratio R of the surface exchange interaction to the bulk one, random transverse fields at the surface and in the bulk and film thickness on the phase diagrams are investigated.

Phase Diagrams of the Site-Diluted Spin-i Ising Film in a Transverse Field

A. Saber, A. Ainane, F. Dujardin +2 more

Within the framework of the effective field theory, with a probability distribution technique that accounts for the single-site spin correlations, we examine the critical behavior of a diluted spin-1/2 Ising film. The critical temperature of the system is studied as a function of the thickness of the film, the concentration of magnetic atoms, the strength of the transverse field and the couplings. It is shown that for the ratio of the surface couplings to the bulk ones R = Js/J less than a critical value R,, the critical temperature of the film Tc/J is smaller than the bulk critical temperature Tc^B/J and for R ≥ Rc, Tc/J is larger than the bulk critical temperature Tc^B/J and Tc^S/J of the corresponding semi-infinite system. As the film thickness L is increased further Tc/J increases for R ≤ Rc (decreases for R 2 R,) and approaches asymptotically for large values of L the bulk critical temperature Tc^B/J (the surface critical temperature Tc^S/J) of the corresponding semi-infinite system.

Phase diagrams of diluted ferromagnetic Ising films in a transverse field

J. C. Cressoni, J.W. Tucker, Enaldo F. Sarmento

An effective-field theory that accounts for the self-spin correlation function is used to study the effect of surface dilution on the critical behavior of a ferromagnetic Ising film in transverse surface and bulk fields. Surface exchange enhancement (or reduction) is considered. It is shown that the surface and bulk fields affect the critical ratio of surface to bulk interactions, at which the surface orders before the bulk, in opposite ways. Although it is found that for the undiluted film this leads to a critical ratio that is practically insensitive to field for common bulk and surface field strengths, this feature is relaxed to a certain degree with surface dilution. The thickness dependence of the critical temperature, and phase diagrams in the fields, interaction strength ratio, and dilution parameter space, are presented.
