Abstract
The three-dimensional semi-infinite mixed spin-1/2 and spin-3/2 ferrimagnetic Ising system with crystal field is investigated using the mean-field approximation and the Monte Carlo simulation. According to the ratio [Formula: see text] of bulk and surface exchange interactions and the ratio [Formula: see text] of bulk and surface crystal fields, we have classified four qualitative types of phase diagrams characterized by the presence or absence of ordinary, extraordinary, surface and special phase transitions. The critical behavior of the surface and bulk magnetizations has also been highlighted in the vicinity of these different transitions. At low temperatures, two critical end-points appear in the bulk and on the surface in the ordered region limiting two successive first-order phase transitions. Furthermore, we have made a comparison with other works on similar models in pure or mixed versions.
