Magnetic properties of a mixed spin-3/2 and spin-2 Ising octahedral chain

Abstract

Using an effective field theory with correlations, the magnetic properties of an octahedral chain described by a mixed spin Ising model were investigated. Unique phenomena such as multiple hysteresis loops, saturation magnetization, and reverse flip of the magnetization plateaus occur when certain typical parameters are applied. These results may help further investigate the magnetic properties of one-dimensional systems and could potentially be utilized in the design of spin devices.
