Ferrimagnetic Behaviors of Mixed Spin Ising Nanotube with Crystal Field.

The magnetic properties of the mixed spin − 1/2 and spin − 1 Ising ferrimagnetic nanotube with a hexagonal lattice in the presence of the crystal field are investigated by means of the finite cluster approximation. We examine the effects of the crystal field, the surface shell, and core coupling parameters where the main attention has been paid to study the magnetizations and also the phase diagrams for both transition and compensation temperatures. In the absence of the crystal field, the compensation behavior exists only in a limited range of surface shell and core couplings. By introducing a crystal field, the compensation behavior is maintained and the tricritical behavior occurs depending on the strength of surface shell coupling. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]
