Dynamical phase diagram of a metamagnetic model subject to an oscillating magnetic field

Published Apr 1, 1999• 4 citations

Abstract

We investigated the dynamical behavior of an Ising model in a square lattice subject to a time-dependent external magnetic field. In our model the exchange coupling between first neighboring spins in the horizontal direction is different from that of the vertical direction. We have employed the master equation approach for the Glauber stochastic process and used the dynamical pair approximation in order to decouple the hierarchy of equations. We have found the stationary phase diagram for this model in the plane amplitude of the oscillating field versus temperature, for different values of the frequency of the external field and of the ratio between the vertical and the horizontal couplings. Depending on these values, the phase diagram can exhibit the ferromagnetic, paramagnetic, and antiferromagnetic phases. The transition between these phases can be continuous or discontinuous, and the model may also display a tricritical behavior.

Dynamical critical transition of an antiferromagnetic Ising model in an oscillating field

Gilberto Luiz Hoenicke, P. C. T. D’Ajello, W. Figueiredo

The phase diagram of an antiferromagnetic Ising model in a square lattice is studied as a function of temperature and of the frequency of an external uniform oscillating field. The time evolution of the staggered magnetization is obtained through the formalism of the master equation within the dynamical pair approximation. We have shown that the stationary solutions lead to transitions between the antiferromagnetic and paramagnetic phases. The critical field of the transition depends on the competition between the frequencies of the field and that of the spin flipping. We show that for high values of the frequency of the oscillating field the system remains always in a stationary antiferromagnetic state.

Dynamic phase transition in the kinetic spin-5/2 Blume–Emery–Griffiths model in an oscillating external magnetic field

Mustafa Keskín, Mehmet Ertaş

Employing a mean-field approach, we study the stationary states of the kinetic spin-5/2 Blume–Emery–Griffiths (BEG) model under the presence of a time-varying (sinusoidal) magnetic field by using the Glauber-type stochastic dynamics. We employ the Glauber transition rates to construct the set of dynamic mean-field equations. We investigate the time variation in average order parameters to find the phases in the system, and the thermal behavior of the dynamic order parameters to characterize the nature (continuous or discontinuous) of the dynamic phase transtions and to the dynamic phase transition temperature. The dynamic phase diagrams are presented in three different planes. The phase diagrams contain the ferromagnetic-5/2, the ferromagnetic-3/2, the ferromagnetic-1/2, the ferroquadrupolar, and disordered fundamental phases. They also include the nine coexisting or mixed phases composed of binary and ternary combinations of fundamental phases that strongly depend on the interaction parameters. The phase diagrams display the critical end point, double critical end point, triple point, quadruple point, and one, two, or three special points and the dynamic tricritical point that depends on the interaction parameters.

Dynamic phase transitions in the kinetic mixed spin-1/2 and spin-5/2 Ising model under a time-dependent oscillating magnetic field

Bayram Deviren, Mustafa Keskín, Osman Canko

We calculate the dynamic phase transition (DPT) temperatures and present the dynamic phase diagrams in the kinetic mixed spin-1/2 and spin-5/2 Ising model under the presence of a time-dependent oscillating external magnetic field. We employ the Glauber transition rates to construct the set of mean-field dynamic equations. The time variation of the average magnetizations and the thermal behavior of the dynamic magnetizations are investigated, extensively. The nature (continuous or discontinuous) of the transitions is characterized by studying the thermal behaviors of the dynamic magnetizations. The DPT points are obtained and the phase diagrams are presented in two different planes. Phase diagrams contain four fundamental phases and three coexistence or mixed phases, which strongly depend on interaction parameters. The phase diagrams are discussed and a comparison is made with the results of the other mixed spin Ising systems.

Nonequilibrium behavior of the kinetic metamagnetic spin-5/2 Blume—Capel model

Ümüt Temizer

The dynamic magnetic behavior of the kinetic metamagnetic spin-5/2 Blume—Capel model is examined, within a mean-field approach, under a time-dependent oscillating magnetic field. To describe the kinetics of the system, Glauber-type stochastic dynamics has been utilized. The mean-field dynamic equations of the model are obtained from the Master equation. Firstly, these dynamic equations are solved to find the phases in the system. Then, the dynamic phase transition temperatures are obtained by investigating the thermal behavior of dynamic sublattice magnetizations. Moreover, from this investigation, the nature of the phase transitions (first- or second-order) is characterized. Finally, the dynamic phase diagrams are plotted in five different planes. It is found that the dynamic phase diagrams contain the paramagnetic (P), antiferromagnetic (AF 5/2 , AF 3/2 , AF 1/2 ) phases and five different mixed phases. The phase diagrams also display many dynamic critical points, such as tricritical point, triple point, quadruple point, double critical end point and separating point.

Kinetics of a mixed spin-1 and spin-3/2 Ising system under a time-dependent oscillating magnetic field

Mustafa Keskín, Ersin Kantar, Osman Canko

We present a study, within a mean-field approach, of the kinetics of the mixed spin-1 and spin-3/2 Ising model Hamiltonian with bilinear and biquadratic nearest-neighbor exchange interactions and a single-ion potential or crystal-field interaction in the presence of a time-dependent oscillating external magnetic field. We employ the Glauber transition rates to construct the mean-field dynamical equations. We investigate the time dependence of average magnetizations and the quadrupole moments, and the thermal behavior of the dynamic order parameters. From these studies, we obtain the dynamic phase transition (DPT) points and construct the phase diagrams in three different planes. Phase diagrams contain disordered (d) , ferrimagnetic (i) , the antiquadrupolar or staggered (a) phases, and four coexistence or mixed phase regions, namely, the i+d , i+a , i+a+d , and a+d , that strongly depend on interaction parameters. The system also exhibits the dynamic tricritical behavior in most cases, the reentrant behavior in few cases.

Dynamic phase transition in the kinetic Ising model under a time-dependent oscillating field

Tânia Tomé, Mário J. de Oliveira

We analyze within a mean-field approach the stationary states of the kinetic Ising model described by the Glauber stochastic dynamics and subject to a time-dependent oscillating external field. We have found that the magnetization of the system oscillates in time around a certain value that is zero at high temperatures or large field amplitudes and nonzero at low temperatures and small field amplitudes. The transition from one regime to the other, which corresponds to a spontaneous symmetry breaking, is found to be continuous for sufficiently small values of the field amplitudes. For higher values the transition becomes discontinuous and the system exhibits a dynamical tricritical point.
