Abstract

We use the effective field theory with a probability distribution technique to investigate the magnetic properties of an antiferromagnetic Ising core/shell nanoparticle with a negative interlayer coupling core/shell in the presence of both the longitudinal and the transverse fields. Nearest-neighbor pair interactions are incorporated between the Ising spins in three parts that are core, core/shell, and surface shell. The effects of the external and the transverse fields and the exchange interactions between core/shell and in surface shell on the hysteresis loops and the susceptibility of the nanoparticle are examined. A number of interesting phenomena have been found.
