Kinetics of a mixed spin-1/2 and spin-3/2 Ising ferrimagnetic model
Abstract
We present a study, within a mean-field approach, of the kinetics of a mixed ferrimagnetic model on a square lattice in which two interpenetrating square sublattices have spins that can take two values, , alternated with spins that can take the four values, . We use the Glauber-type stochastic dynamics to describe the time evolution of the system with a crystal-field interaction in the presence of a time-dependent oscillating external magnetic field. The nature (continuous and discontinuous) of transition is characterized by studying the thermal behaviors of average order parameters in a period. The dynamic phase transition points are obtained and the phase diagrams are presented in the reduced magnetic field amplitude and reduced temperature plane, and in the reduced temperature and interaction parameter planes, namely in the and planes, is the reduced crystal-field interaction. The phase diagrams always exhibit a tricritical point in plane, but do not exhibit in the plane for low values of . The dynamic multicritical point or dynamic critical end point exist in the plane for low values of . Moreover, phase diagrams contain paramagnetic , ferromagnetic , ferrimagnetic phases, two coexistence or mixed phase regions, and , that strongly depend on interaction parameters.
