Monte Carlo simulation of dielectric properties of a mixed spin-3/2 and spin-5/2 Ising ferrielectric nanowires

Abstract

ABSTRACTDielectric properties of Ising ferrielectric nanowires with spin-3/2 core and spin-5/2 shell structure are systematically studied by the use of the Monte Carlo simulation in the presence of the external longitudinal electric field. Special focus is given to the effects of the core and shell interactions, the interface coupling and the temperature on the core and shell polarizations, the specific heat, the compensations points, the susceptibility and hysteresis behaviors. Some characteristic behaviors are found, such as the existence of triple hysteresis loops for appropriate values of the system parameters affected by the antiferroelectric interface coupling constant and the temperature. The results are compared with those of recently published works and a qualitatively good agreement is found.
