Effect of crystal-field potential on compensation temperature of a mixed spin-1/2 and spin-1 Ising ferrimagnetic system

The magnetic properties of the mixed spin-1/2 and spin-1 Ising ferrimagnetic system with nearest-neighbor and crystal-field interaction on the Bethe lattice are investigated within the framework of exact recursion relations. Particular interest is given to the coordination numbers q = 3 , 4, 5 and 6. The existence and dependence of compensation temperature on crystal-field interaction and coordination number is also investigated. If q ⩾ 4 , we find that the compensation temperature point is obtained in a restricted region of crystal-field interaction Δ .
