The mean-field approximation based on the Gibbs-Bogoliubov inequality and Monte Carlo simulations based on the Metropolis method in the Blume–Emery–Griffiths model were used to successfully examine a hexagonal Ising nanowire with spin-1. It was found that the model displays fascinating phase diagrams in various planes of interest by using both methods. The investigation of magnetic hysteresis cycles also exhibits interesting properties. The model not only presents first- and second-order phase transition lines, but also the tricritical and isolated critical points, multi-compensation temperatures, and magnetic hysteresis behavior with one to eight cycles. • The mean-field approximation based on the Gibbs-Bogoliubov inequality is applied. • The Monte Carlo simulations based on the Metropolis method is employed. • Spin-1 Blume–Emery–Griffiths model for hexagonal Ising nanowire is investigated. • First- and second-order transitions, tricritical and isolated critical points are found. • Multi-compensation and magnetic hysteresis with one to eight cycles are observed.

In this study, a bilayer Kagome lattice with RKKY interaction is described using a ferrimagnetic mixed spin-3/2 and spin-2 Ising model. Interesting compensation temperature and hysteresis loops of the system generated by various physical parameters, such as the crystal fields of sublattices (D a , D b), the interlayer exchange coupling (J R) and the intralayer exchange coupling (J b) are explored using Monte Carlo simulation. The results demonstrate that the compensation temperature (T comp), weaker D a and J b , and stronger D b , are favourable for the emergence of the compensation temperatures. Besides, under certain physical parameters, the system may exhibit triple-loop hysteresis behavior and multiple magnetization plateaus. • A ferrimagnetic mixed-spin (3/2, 2) Ising model on the bilayer Kagome lattice with RKKY interaction was proposed. • The effects of the crystal field, exchange coupling and non-magnetic layer were studied. • Magnetization, partial magnetization, and susceptibility were discussed. • Phase diagrams of the critical and compensation temperatures were obtained. • Interesting multi-loop hysteresis characteristics and magnetization plateaus were found.

We proposed a ferrimagnetic mixed-spin (1, 3/2) Ising model to study the magnetic behaviors of a graphene ladder-type chain structure by means of Monte Carlo simulation. Induced by different physical parameters, the system can display interesting magnetic behaviors such multiple saturation magnetization values, double-peak susceptibility curves, and multi-cycle hysteresis loops. The results illustrate that crystal-field, exchange coupling and external magnetic field show significant impacts on the magnetic properties of the system. • A mixed-spin (1, 3/2) Ising model was proposed to describe a ferrimagnetic graphene ladder-type chain structure. • Magnetization, magnetic susceptibility, and internal energy were studied by Monte Carlo method. • The phase diagrams of the blocking temperature in three-dimensional space was given. • Multi-cycle hysteresis behaviors were discovered caused by various parameters.

The hysteresis properties and phase diagrams of a ternary nanowire, composed of a ferromagnetic (FM) core of spin-1 encircled by a ferrimagnetic (FiM) shell of mixed spin-(1/2, 3/2). Monte Carlo simulation is used to study the effects of the exchange interactions (R s , R 1 , R 2 and R I F) and crystal fields (D c , D s) on the phase diagrams for various thicknesses of core and shell of the system. Our outcomes indicate that the compensation temperature exists for a particular range when D c and D s are present. In addition, a first and a second order phase transitions appear for different values of D c , while a second phase transition appears for various values of D s. Moreover, the hysteresis loops, coercivities and remanences of the system and three sublattices are discussed in detail. Multiple hysteresis loops such as double, triple and quintuple loops were found in the system for a various physical parameters. By comparing our findings to those of previous theoretical and experimental studies, a qualitative agreement can be found. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]

• The mixed spin Ising model is generally used as a modeling tool to study ferrimagnetism. • Monte Carlo simulation to study the critical and the compensation behaviors of a cubic lattice considering a mixed spin- 3/2 and spin-1 Ising ferrimagnetic model. • The presence of crystal and external magnetic fields is not sufficient to generate the compensation phenomenon in a mixed spins. In this study, we perform Monte Carlo simulations to study the magnetic properties of a mixed Ising model on a cubic lattice where spins S i A = 1 and σ J B = 3/2 are located in sublattice A and B, respectively. The proposed Hamiltonian includes coupling to nearest-neighbors interactions, next-nearest-neighbors interactions, crystal fields D S and D σ and external magnetic field h. We perform exact ground-state calculations for our model. The obtained results show the behavior of the critical temperature with the presence of the compensation temperatures under a certain range of parameters. Particularly, we found that the existence of compensation temperatures depends on the strength of the coupling to the next nearest neighbors between the S i A spins and between the σ J B spins, and it appears in a certain range of values of the external magnetic and crystal field of different spins.

Monte Carlo simulation has been employed to investigate the magnetic properties and phase diagrams of ferrimagnetic mixed-spin (1 / 2 , 1) triangular Ising nanotube with core–shell structure. In particular, the effect of the exchange couplings and the temperature on the magnetic and thermodynamic properties, hysteresis loops, and the compensation temperature have been discussed in detail. Moreover, the effects of the single-ion anisotropy and external magnetic field have been examined. The threshold values of the exchange couplings and single-ion anisotropy have been found, determining whether the system exhibits a compensation temperature. We have found that the appearance of the compensation temperature is strongly linked with the system parameters. Moreover, we have obtained the double and triple hysteresis loops for certain physical parameters in the magnetic system. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]
