Abstract

Based on the Monte Carlo method,we examined the dynamic magnetic behaviors and magnetocaloric effect of a Kagome lattice subjected to the influence of time-dependent oscillating and time-independent magnetic fields.We used the Ising model to describe the Kagome lattice and study the dynamic order parameters,blocking temperature,internal energy,and phase diagrams.The results revealed that exchange coupling increases the stability of the system and the bias field induces order; however,the time-dependent oscillating magnetic field induces disorder.In addition,the magnetocaloric properties,changes in magnetic entropy,and relative cooling power of the Kagome lattice were investigated.

1.Introduction

The Kagome lattice is a two-dimensional hexagonal network composed of corner-sharing triangles,the structure of which has received considerable attention from the scientific community since its inception.This lattice can bind electrons in a six-membered ring and generate flat bands,thereby introducing interesting physical phenomena in condensed-matter physics.For example,when the Fermi surface is on a flat band,the extremely high density of the electron states on this band allows the system to be spontaneously ferromagnetic,despite the small Coulomb interaction between the electrons[1-3].Additionally,the flat band is a natural platform for the realization of the Wigner lattice [4,5] because the kinetic quenching of,and interactions between,electrons are dominant in this band.In addition,the Kagome structure is applied to the studies on Bose-Einstein condensate [6],hightemperature fractional quantum Hall effect [4,7,8],hightemperature superconductivity [9,10],and other properties based on flat bands.

Another important property of the Kagome lattice is its ability to generate frustrated spin [11,12].Frustrated spin systems frequently manifest as interesting physical phenomena associated with nontrivial spin orders.Therefore,this lattice has attracted much attention as an important method of studying spin-liquid or spin-ice systems.For example,research and analysis of a series of spin-liquid materials,such as Y3Cu9(OH)19Cl8,CaCu3(OH)6Cl2·0.6H2O,and YCu3(OH)6Cl3,were conducted by applying this lattice [13-16].

The experimental results associated with the preparation and study of Kagome structural materials are equally impressive.Szymczak et al experimentally measured the inelastic neutron scattering from Co3V2O8single crystals and the electron paramagnetic resonance of Co2+ions in Mg3V2O8single crystals [17].The authors concluded that the magnetic anisotropy of (M=Co,Ni,Mn) step oxides is mainly owing to single ions.Jiang et al [18]prepared two open-frame transition metal fluorophosphates,(NH4) M3(PO3F)2(PO2F2) F2(M=Mn and Co),possessing Kagome lattices and found that the Kagome topology of the material exacerbates magnetic frustration and exhibits an antiferromagnetic ground state.Furthermore,Fe-Sn alloys are typical Kagome materials.Lin et al [19] experimentally combined scanning tunneling microscopy,angle-resolved photoelectron spectroscopy,and first-principles calculations to confirm the existence of a flat-band electronic structure in the quasi-dimensional Kagome compoundFe3Sn2.The existence of a magnetic Dirac semimetal was experimentally demonstrated for the first time by the authors.

Magnetic and thermodynamic properties are equally popular areas of investigation in the study of Kagome lattice materials.The magnetic behavior of two-dimensional decorated Kagome lattices in the Ising model was studied by Si et al [20].Ananikian et al [21] investigated the magnetic properties and entanglement of fluid3He in a Kagome lattice.Their results demonstrated that the system exhibited diverse magnetic behaviors depending on the exchange parameters.Yerzhakov et al [22] investigated the thermodynamic characteristics of geometrically frustrated ABC-stacked antiferromagnetic Kagome layer films using Metropolis Monte Carlo (MC) simulations.Soldatov [23] investigated the diluted antiferromagnetic Ising model in magnetic fields on Kagome lattices and discussed the similarities and differences in the resulting magnetization curves.Owing to its simple implementation and versatility,the Ising model is beneficial for studying the magnetic behavior of nanostructured systems[24-26].In addition,MC simulations allow the study of the magnetic behaviors and magnetocaloric effects of nano-systems [27-30].In our previous study,we successfully described the magnetic and thermodynamic properties of a nanosystem using the Ising model [31-33].Moreover,dynamic phase transitions and hysteresis loop behaviors have raised significant interest[34,35].This is because when a material is exposed to a dynamically-applied magnetic field(both biased and time-varying oscillatory fields),the system does not simultaneously respond to both fields,but the order of the magnetic moment depends on the oscillating field over time,leading to dynamic phase transitions[36,37].Vatansever and Polat [38] researched materials,including triangular lattice and ferromagnetic thin film systems,under biased and oscillating magnetic fields and found that the amplitude of the oscillating magnetic fields affected the dynamic critical properties of the system [39].Erta? et al observed the dynamic hysteresis line behaviors of Ising ferromagnetic systems and discussed the effect of temperature on exchange coupling and the dynamic hysteresis behaviors [40-42].Cardona et al used the MC method to study the influence of relevant parameters,including the frequency and amplitude of the oscillating magnetic field,on the dynamic magnetic and thermodynamic properties of La2/3Ca1/3MnO3under a time-dependent magnetic field [43].Gallardo et al used an analytical approach to analyze the dynamic phase transition of the kinetic Ising model in mean field approximation and found that the time-independent field components are conjugate fields with ordered parameters [44].Studies of dynamic phase transitions such as these are important in recent magnetic research.Although many advances have been made in the theoretical studies on the magnetism of Kagome structural lattices,most of these studies have focused on constant applied magnetic fields.Based on the MC simulations,Z.D.Vatansever studied the effect of system sizes on dynamic phase transition behaviors of the Kagome lattice in the presence of a square-wave oscillating magnetic field.The results indicate that the phase transition temperature increases with the increase in system size [45].In this study,based on a fixed system size,we used MC simulations to demonstrate the dynamic magnetic properties and magnetocaloric effect of a single-layer Kagome lattice under dynamic magnetic fields.

The remainder of this paper is organized as follows.In section 2,we describe the model applied and briefly introduce the MC simulation.In section 3,we analyze the typical results obtained using the Kagome lattice model under different relevant parameters such as dynamic order,blocking temperature,internal energy,phase diagram and magnetocaloric effect.Finally,section 4 presents the conclusions of the study.

2.Model and Monte Carlo simulation

A schematic of a Kagome lattice is shown in figure 1.The lattice consists of two types of sublattices; the yellow and blue balls represent sublattices A and B,respectively.The dash-dotted lines represent the nearest-neighbor ferromagnetic exchange couplings J1(>0).The dotted and solid lines represent the ferrimagnetic exchange couplings Js(<0)and J(<0),respectively.Considering that the exchange coupling,anisotropy,and external magnetic field have significant influences on the system,the Hamiltonian of the system can be given as

whereσizand Smzrepresent spins ±3/2 and ±2,respectively.The anisotropies are expressed as D1and D,respectively,and h(t) is the magnetic field,which is composed of timedependent oscillating and time-independent magnetic fields.To simplify the calculation,in the following calculation process,J1=1 is taken as the unit.Therefore,h(t) is written as

where hbiasdenotes the value of the bias field,hoscand τ represent the amplitude and period of the time-dependent oscillating field,respectively,and t represents the time measured by the MC simulation per spin step.

To simulate the magnetic properties of the Kagome model,we adopted the MC method based on the Metropolis algorithm[46].To maintain the equilibrium of the system and ensure the reliability of the calculation results,we discarded the initial 3×105MC steps per spin and calculated the magnetic and thermodynamic quantities using the remaining 2×105MC steps.The system shown in figure 1 has 48 magnetic atoms divided into five sublattices (N1,N2,N3,N4,and N5).Sublattice A is composed of N1and N3,and sublattice A is composed of N2,N4,and N5.The magnetizations per site are defined as

where NAis the number of sites in sublattices N1and N3,and NBrepresents the number of sites in sublattices N2,N4,and N5.Therefore,we can evaluate the total magnetization of the system as

The dynamic order parameters of the five sublattices are expressed as

The dynamic order parameter is calculated as

We defined dynamic magnetic susceptibility as

The instantaneous internal energy per spin is calculated using

We can calculate the dynamical internal energy per spin as follows:

where kBrepresents the Boltzmann constant,which we set to 1.The magnetic entropy of the system is calculated as follows:

3.Results and discussion

We demonstrated the influences of diverse parameters on dynamic thermodynamic quantities,such as Q,QA,QB,χ,and U on the Kagome lattice.

3.1.Dynamic order parameter,susceptibility,and internal energy

Figure 2 shows the variations in the dynamic order parameters of the system when the exchange-coupling J changes,and the remaining parameters are set to Js=?1.2,J1=1.0,hbias=0.7,hosc=1.1,D=?0.3,D1=?0.6,and ω=0.02π.Figure 2(a)shows the functional relationship between the average total dynamic order parameters (Q) and temperature (T) for different values of J.Only one saturation value(Qs=11/16)exists on all the Q ?T curves.The curves begin at this value and then gradually decline to a constant value.The effects of J on Q are not obvious when T<0.25 or T>0.75.When 0.25Tb.As T increases,the χ curves gradually shift to the high-temperature region.This behavior can be explained by an increase in the order energy of the system owing to the increase in J.Therefore,an increased amount of thermal energy is required to bring the system to disorder.In figure 2(d),the U curves are observed to increase as T increases and maintain a similar change rule.More specifically,when the temperature is low,U maintains a constant value.With the increase in T,U increases rapidly and subsequently slows.In addition,we observe that for the same temperature,U decreases as |J| increases.

Figure 3 shows the dynamic thermodynamic variables of the system when Jschanges and the other parameters are fixed at J=?0.5,J1=1.0,hbias=0.7,hosc=1.1,D=?0.3,D1=?0.6,and ω=0.02π.As shown in figure 3(a),the Q ?T curves show a similar trend; they all start from the saturation value (Qs=11/16) at zero temperature.With an increase in temperature,the curve of Q shows a rapid decline and finally converges to a steady value.As shown in figure 3(b),both QAand QBcurves shift to the right with the increase in Js; this phenomenon is similar to that shown in figure 2(b).From figure 3(c),we can clearly see that Tbincreases with an increase in Js.This is similar to the influence of J on the system; however,Jshas a smaller influence on the Tbof the system than that of J,as seen from the susceptibility curve obtained from changing J.This is because the changes in Jsonly influence the spin states of the peripheral sublattice,and the number of atoms in the periphery is relatively small.Figure 3(d)shows that with an increase in temperature,the U curves start to increase and finally stabilize.Each U curve reaches an inflection point corresponding to Tb,after which the positive slope of the curve starts to decrease,and the variation law of the curve is similar to that observed in figure 2(d).

Figure 5 clearly shows the effect of anisotropy D on Q,χ,and U for J=?1.6,Js=?1.2,hbias=0.7,hosc=1.1,D1=?0.6,and ω=0.02π.In figure 5(a),four saturation values of Q,i.e.11/16,7/16,?11/20,and ?3/16,at T=0 are displayed at D=?0.3,?1.3,?2.4,and ?3.6,respectively.For instance,when D=?0.3,figure 5(b) shows that the saturation values of the two sublattices are QA=2.0 and QB=?1.5,respectively.Therefore,the saturation value of the system is Qs=11/16.When |D| increases to 1.3,QAdecreases and QBremains unchanged.A strong anisotropy can maintain the spin of sublattice A at a low state.Figures 5(c) and (d) show the dynamic order parameters of the five sublattices when D=?2.4 and ?3.6,respectively.At T=0,Q2=Q4=Q5=?1.5 and Q3=1.0.However,as D decreases from ?2.4 to ?3.6,the saturation value of Q1changes,i.e.Q1=13/25 at D=?2.4 and Q1=0 at D=?3.6.A more interesting phenomenon is observed when|D|=3.6;the Q2,Q3,Q4,Q5curves of the sublattices change to the opposite direction with increasing T.Notably,when D=?2.4,the saturation value of 13/25 for Q1is owing to the sublattices not responding to the magnetic field simultaneously,causing the change in direction.The directions of the Q curves labeled ?2.4 and ?3.6 in figure 5(a) change from negative to positive at a certain T.When the magnetization is zero,the corresponding temperature is called the compensation temperature Tcom,which decreases with increasing |D|.As shown in figure 5(e),Tbincreases as |D| decreases.In addition,double peaks are observed on the χ curve owing to thermal agitation.From figure 5(f),as both T and|D|increase,U increases.In addition,in the low-temperature zone,a noticeable fluctuation is observed for D=?3.6,where U decreases and then increases.This behavior is related to the changing directions of the Q curves.

The temperature dependencies of Q,QA,QB,χ,and U for different values of hbiasat J=?1.6,Js=?1.2,J1=1.0,D=?0.3,D1=?0.6,hosc=1.1,and ω=0.02π,are shown in figure 6.As shown in figure 6(a),all Q curves have the same saturation value (Qs=11/16).When hbiasis relatively small(hbias=0.7,1.2,or 1.5),the Q curves decrease monotonously with increasing T.When hbiasis large(hbias=1.8,or 2.1),the Q curves first increase and then decrease with an increase in T.We observed that the Q ?T curves do not converge to the same value;a high hbiasleads to a high convergence value of Q.This reveals that the bias field has a significant impact on the dynamic order parameters at high temperatures.In figure 6(b),the saturation values of QAand QBare observed to be 2.0 and ?1.5,respectively.When T<1.0,the bias field hbiashas little effect on QAand QB.However,when T>1.0,with the increase in hbias,the values of QAand QBdecrease significantly.Figure 6(c) shows that Tbincreases as hbiasincreases.This is because an increase in hbiasindicates that the magnetic ordering energy of the system increases.Therefore,breaking the order of the system requires more thermal energy to achieve a dynamic paramagnetic phase.In figure 6(d),U is observed to increase with an increase in T but decreases with an increase in the bias field hbias.

Figure 7 shows the effect of hoscon Q,QA,QB,χ,and U at J=?1.6,Js=?1.2,J1=1.0,D=?0.3,D1=?0.6,hbias=1.5,and ω=0.02π.As seen in figure 7(a),all Q curves have the same saturation value (Qs=11/16).In the low-(0 < T<0.75) and high-temperature (1.75 < T<2.5)regions,Q is not sensitive to T,whereas in the mediumtemperature region (0.75 ≤ T ≤ 1.75),T becomes the dominant factor affecting Q.We observe that for the same T,the value of Q decreases as hoscincreases.As shown in figure 7(b),when the value of hoscincreases,the values of QAand QBgradually decrease.Figure 7(c) reveals that as hoscincreases,Tbshifts towards the low-temperature region.The reason for this phenomenon is that when the other parameters are constant,increasing the amplitude of the external magnetic field that is oscillating is equivalent to increasing the disordered energy of the system;thereby reducing the energy required for the system to break the ordered state of the system.Figure 7(d) shows that in the high-temperature region,T,instead of hosc,dominates the influence of internal energy.

The effect of ω on Q,QA,QB,χ,and U at J=?1.3,Js=?1.2,D=?0.3,D1=?0.6,hbias=0.7,and hosc=1.1 is shown in figure 8.In figure 8(a),unlike the other Q-curves(for example,those in figure 2(a)),when T<1.0 or T>1.5,Q is insensitive to the changes in ω.When 1.0 ≤T ≤1.5,the value of Q increases as ω increases.This is because,in the case of low or high temperatures,the influence of temperature on the total dynamic order parameters is the main factor.Figure 8(b) shows that both QAand |QB| decrease as ω decreases and as the temperature increases.Notably,in figure 8(c),Tbincreases with the increase in ω; ω represents the frequency of the magnetic field oscillation.When ω is small,the magnetic field oscillates slowly and the spin directions of the sublattices can easily follow the change in the time-dependent oscillating magnetic field,which indicates that the system requires less thermal energy to become disordered.The increased ω causes the dynamic order parameter to not respond instantaneously to the oscillating magnetic field,thereby requiring more thermal energy for phase transition.In figure 8(d),we identify that when T is fixed,U increases as ω increases after local amplification.For the same ω,the value of U increases at high values of T.

3.2.Phase diagram

To further clarify the effect of various parameters on the blocking temperature,we sorted the results of Tbunder the influence of different parameters and plotted the corresponding phase diagrams in figures 9(a)-(f).Figures 9(a)-(b)show the effects of J and Json Tbwith the other parameters set as hbias=0.7,hosc=1.1,D=?0.3,D1=?0.6,and ω=0.02π.Additionally,Tbincreases monotonically with increasing |J| and |Js|.This is owing to the increase in exchange coupling that essentially increases the interaction forces of the magnetic sublattices in the system,thereby increasing the ordering energy of the system.Therefore,a large Tbis required for the phase transition of the system.In addition,the change in Jshas a smaller effect on Tbcompared with that of J,because J controls more of the sublattices than Js.Figures 9(c)-(d) show the effect of D and D1on Tbwith other parameters fixed at J=?1.6,Js=?1.2,J1=1.0,hbias=0.7,hosc=1.1,and ω=0.02π.Additionally,as D and|D1|increase,Tbdecreases,which indicates that a large anisotropy is not conducive to the order of the system.Moreover,the change in D1affects Tbless than the changes in D,owing to the reduced number of sublattices with anisotropy D1.Figures 9(e)-(f) show the effect of hbiasand hoscon Tbwith other parameters fixed at J=?1.6,Js=?1.2,J1=1.0,D=?0.3,D1=?0.6,and ω=0.02π.Furthermore,Tbincreases monotonically with increasing hbiasbecause hbiasimproves the order of the system.In addition,hbiasand hoschave opposite effects on Tbbecause the increase in hoscincreases the disorder of the system.

3.3.Magnetocaloric effect

The magnetocaloric effect on the Kagome lattice was investigated.The temperature dependence of magnetization M of the Kagome lattice is shown in figure 10.We observe that M starts at the saturation value (Ms=29/16) at zero temperature and then decreases with increasing T.Figure 11 shows the thermal magnetizations (dM/dT) with different values of bias field hbias.These curves indicate that at the critical temperature Tc,the magnetic transition changes from the ferromagnetic phase to the paramagnetic phase.The corresponding transition temperatures increase with increasing hbias.For example,Tc=1.601 for hbias=1.0 and Tc=2.101 for hbias=5.0.We calculated the magnetic entropy using equation (11).Figure 12 shows the variation trend in the magnetic entropy ΔS of the Kagome lattice as a function of T with different hbias.A maximum value at the critical temperature can be seen in the ?ΔS curves.This maximum value-ΔSmaxincreases with increasing hbias.For hbias=1.0,2.0,3.0,4.0,and 5.0,-ΔSmax=1.759,2.639,3.295,3.880,and 4.426,respectively.In addition,figure 13 shows an interesting parameter for evaluating potential materials for magnetic refrigeration,i.e.RCP,which is a function of hbiasfor the Kagome lattice.Furthermore,RCP is found to increase linearly as hbiasincreases and reaches a value of 8.281 at hbias=6.0.

4.Conclusions

In this study,we investigated the ferrimagnetic mixed-spin(2,3/2) Kagome lattice using MC simulations.We discuss the effect of J,Js,D,D1,hbias,hosc,and ω on the dynamic phase transitions of the system.The system exhibits multiple spin flips when the system parameters are changed,and under certain parametric conditions,compensation point behavior is exhibited by the system.By analyzing the phase diagrams of Tb,we found that large|J|,|Js|,hbias,and ω values facilitate an increase in Tb;however,the increases in D,D1,and hoschave the opposite effect on Tb.Moreover,ΔS as a function of T for various hbias(J and Js) were also discussed.The RCP revealed that the magnetocaloric effect depends on the values of hbias,J and Js.
