In this paper, the ferrimagnetic mixed-spin (3/2, 5/2) Ising model was established to investigate the magnetic and thermodynamic properties of a nanoisland bilayer system with graphene-like structure by Monte Carlo simulation. We have analyzed the magnetization of the system and two sublattices, susceptibility, internal energy and hysteresis loops in detail. We have obtained the phase diagrams of the blocking temperature T B affected by the effects of various physical parameters. The triple hysteresis behavior has been observed, which originates from the competition among various physical parameters. Our results are comparable with those of other theoretical and experimental research. • The ferrimagnetic mixed-spin (3/2, 5/2) graphene-like nanoisland bilayer in the longitudinal magnetic field has been investigated. • Magnetization, susceptibility and internal energy have been discussed. • The phase diagrams of blocking temperature have been obtained under the influence of various physical parameters. • The triple hysteresis behavior have been found for certain physical parameters.

Magnetic and thermodynamic characteristics of Ising ferrimagnetic core-shell graphene nanoribbon with core spin −2 and shell spin 5/2 were investigated by using the effective field theory with correlations. Some characteristic phenomena have been found in the system. Different saturation magnetization and P-type and Q-type curves were found on the magnetization curves. At low temperature, the magnetization has obvious magnetization platform. Due to the results of exchange coupling, anisotropy and external magnetic field competition, the m 5 -m 7 sublattice magnetization platform presents a concave shape. The results obtained may have potential applications in the design of nanodevices. • Ising model of core-shell structure graphene nanoribbon is suggested. • Magnetic properties of the system have been studied. • Spin-flip or spin-flop has been found on the magnetization curves.

In this paper, we proposed a ferrimagnetic mixed-spin (1, 3/2) Ising model to describe the ladder-like graphene nanoribbon. Using the Monte Carlo simulation, the effects of the anisotropies, exchange couplings, longitudinal magnetic field and temperature on the magnetic and thermodynamic properties were investigated. Typical temperature dependences of thermodynamics quantities such as magnetization, susceptibility and internal energy were presented under the influence of various physical parameters. The phase diagrams of blocking temperature were obtained in the different parameter planes. In particular, we also found some interesting double hysteresis loops behavior for certain physical parameters. Our results are consistent with those obtained by some theoretical and experimental researches. • The ferrimagnetic mixed-spin (1, 3/2) Ising ladder-like graphene nanoribbon in the longitudinal magnetic field has been studied. • Magnetization, susceptibility and internal energy have been discussed. • The phase diagrams of the blocking temperature under the influence of different parameters have been obtained. • The double hysteresis loops behavior has been found for certain physical parameters.

Magnetic and thermodynamic properties of the zigzag graphene nanoribbon described by Ising model have been studied within Monte Carlo simulation. The system exhibited interesting and rich magnetization plateaus behaviors at low temperature, which is sensitive to the exchange coupling and the anisotropy. In certain parameters, the depressed saturation magnetization, spin-flip or spin-flop has been found on the magnetization curves. The peaks on the susceptibility and specific heat curves originate from competition among the magnetic field, the exchange couplings and anisotropies. The spin configurations of the zigzag graphene nanoribbon can be modulated by the anisotropies. Our results can provide an opportunity for the design of a new type random access memory by using zigzag graphene nanoribbon. • Ising model of zigzag graphene nanoribbon is suggested. • Magnetic properties of the system have been studied. • spin-flip or spin-flop has been found on the magnetization curves.

Using the Monte Carlo method, we have studied the effect of the Hamiltonian parameters (the exchange couplings, the crystal and the magnetic fields) on the magnetizations, the phase diagrams and the hysteresis behavior of a hexagonal ferromagnetic or ferrimagnetic Ising core/shell nanoparticle with mixed spin-5/2 and spin-2. Interesting phenomena have been shown. In particular, the system exhibits the first order transition, the compensation temperature and the compensation crystal field. In addition, the nanoparticle presents single, double, triple and quintuple hysteresis loops. • MCS has been used to study the magnetic properties of a mixed spin-(5/2, 2) Ising core/shell nanoparticle. • The system presents a special point at which four first order transition lines are linked. • The compensation behavior and multiple hysteresis loops have been observed.
