Published Jan 1, 2003• 0 citations
OpenAlex

Abstract

Motivation. 2D Ising model with competing interactions describes the thermodynamic properties of confined complex liquids like microemulsion films and some compounds of rare-earth metals. On the other hand there is a close relationship between critical properties of this model and peculiarities of the energy spectra of some onedimensional quantum models Therefore correct description of model phase diagram is of wide interest. Method. Density matrix renormalization group method for two-dimensional classical systems. Results. A new modification of density matrix renormalization scheme for 2D Ising model with competing interactions has been presented. The estimations for critical temperatures of second order phase transitions in the model were obtained. Conclusions. 2D Ising model with competing interactions has a complicated phase diagram and can be described by means of corresponding version of DMRG method at least in the vicinity of some critical points.

On the Phase Diagram of the 2d Ising Model with Frustrating Dipole Interaction

Petro Sarkanych, Yurij V. Holovatch, Ralph Kenna B

Due to intrinsic frustrations of interaction, the 2d Ising model with competing ferromagnetic short-range nearest-neighbour and antiferromagnetic long-range dipole interactions possesses a rich phase diagram. The order of the phase transition from the striped h = 1 phase to the tetragonal phase that is observed in this model has been a subject of recent controversy. We address this question by using the partition function density analysis in the complex temperature plane. Our results support the second-order phase transition scenario. To measure the strength of the phase transition, we calculate the values of specific heat critical exponent a. Along with the space dimension, it appears to depend on the ratio of strengths of the short-range and long-range interactions.

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.

Magnetic Properties of a Square Lattice Ising Ferromagnetic System for Different Spins with Monte Carlo Simulation

A. Azdouh, Said Harir, Anouar Elidrysy +3 more

Using the Monte Carlo Simulation (MCS) method combined with the Metropolis algorithm, we explore the magnetic properties of a two-dimensional (2D) spin system with spins 1, 2 and 3. The adapted simulation to the Ising model aims to study the impact of the correction term a of the interaction with second neighbors and the crystal field D on the critical temperature [Formula: see text] of the 2D anisotropic square lattice for different integer values of spins. The obtained results demonstrate that the critical temperature [Formula: see text] is significantly affected by the competing interactions between the anisotropy parameter, second-neighbor interaction and the crystal field. The considered model exhibits a critical phase transition regardless of the spin S value where the critical temperature increases with the value of S. Note that this phase transition occurs under the condition [Formula: see text]. Moreover, the obtained results show that the complex interactions give rise to a variety of phase diagrams, thereby revealing the richness of possible magnetic behaviors in the studied system.

Phase diagram of the Ising square lattice with competing interactions

Ansgar Kalz, A. Honecker, Sebastian Fuchs +1 more

We restudy the phase diagram of the 2D-Ising model with competing interactions J1 on nearest neighbour and J2 on next-nearest neighbour bonds via Monte-Carlo simulations. We present the finite temperature phase diagram and introduce computational methods which allow us to calculate transition temperatures close to the criticalpoint at J2 = J1/2. Further on we investigate the character of the different phase boundariesand find that the transition is weakly first order formoderate J2 > J1/2.

Monte Carlo studies of the Ising square lattice with competing interactions

Ansgar Kalz, A. Honecker, Sebastian Fuchs +1 more

Abstract. We use improved Monte-Carlo algorithms to study the antiferromagnetic 2D-Ising model with competing interactions J1 on nearest neighbour and J2 on next-nearest neighbour bonds. The finite-temperature phase diagram is divided by a critical point at J2 = J1/2 where the groundstate is highly degenerate. To analyse the phase boundaries we look at the specific heat and the energy distribution for various ratios of J2/J1. We find a first order transition for small J2> J1/2 and the transition temperature suppressed to TC = 0 at the critical point. 1.

Critical behaviour of the phase transition in the 2D Ising Model with impurities

Виктор Степанович Доценко, Victor S Dotsenko

The problem of the effect of inhomogeneous impurities in a lattice structure on the critical behaviour of systems which undergo a second-order phase transition is studied on a model system, the 2D Ising Model with impurity bonds randomly distributed over the lattice. It is known that in the critical region the 2D Ising Model is equivalent to the model of free fermions. We show that the effect of impurities is to add a four-fermion interaction with the corresponding charge proportional to the concentration of impurities. The resulting fermion model is simple enough and can be studied exactly by renormalization group methods. We show that for any small concentration of impurity bonds a new critical regime is established if we go sufficiently close to the phase-transition point. In particular we find that the specific heat singularity changes from C ˜ ln 1/|τ|(τ=(Τ − Τc/Τc to C ˜ ln ln 1/|τ| for τ≪τi ˜ exp(−const/c i), c i being the concentration of impurities, while the spin-spin correlation function in the critical point changes more seriously: from <σ R σΟ> ˜ 1/R1/4 to <σ R σΟ> ˜ exp { − (const/c i)(ln ln R2 )} for R≫R i˜ exp (const/c i), which corresponds to a change of the critical exponent η from 1/4 to 0.
