Abstract

In an artificial 3D percolation nano medium, the clusters filled by the Ising magnets give rise to a topologically nontrivial magnetic structure, leading to new features of the ferromagnetic phase transition without an external magnetic field. In such an inhomogeneous system, the standard Ising model is strongly modified by the spatial percolation cluster distribution. We found numerically that at percolation occupation probability p<1p<1 far from the percolation threshold pc3Dp_{c3D}, the magnetization shows ferromagnetic-paramagnetic phase transition with the transition temperature TcT_{c} depending considerably on the probability pp. We provide numerical evidence that in vicinity pc3Dp_{c3D}\ the dependence Tc(p)T_{c}(p) is affected by the noninteger fractal dimension DH(p)D_{H}(p) of the incipient percolation spanning cluster.
