Two-step photo-induced phase transitions in a two-sublattice model
نویسندگان
چکیده
As an effective model for the two-step spin transition, we study a two-sublattice spin model that takes into account intra-site antiferromagnetic and inter-site ferromagnetic couplings. Due to the competition between these couplings, the temperature dependence of the high spin fraction shows a two-step transition. We perform Monte Carlo (MC) simulations including a photoexcitation term. The MC dynamics of the high spin fraction shows non-linear characteristics such as step-like changes, threshold-like behavior, and phase separation.

متن کاملPhoto-electrocatalytic activity of TiO2 nanotubes prepared with two-step anodization and treated under UV light irradiation
To improve the photo-catalytic degradation of salicylic acid, we reported the fabrication of ordered TiO2 nanotube arrays by a simple and effective two-step anodization method and then these TiO2 nanotubes treated in a methanol solution under UV light irradiation. The TiO2 nanotubes prepared in the two-step anodization process showed better photo-catalytic activity than TiO2 nanotubes prepared ...
متن کاملDynamic phase transitions and dynamic phase diagrams in the kinetic mixed spin-1 and spin-2 Ising system in an oscillating magnetic field*
In recent years, several theoretical studies on the equilibrium properties of two sublattice mixed spin-1 and spin-2 Ising model have been reported [1]. Nonequlibrium properties of this model has not been investigated so far. One of the interesting problems in nonequlibrium systems is to calculate the dynamic phase transition (DPT) temperatures and present the dynamic phase diagrams. In this wo...

A three-dimensional layered Ising-Antiferromagnet with a ferromagnetic intra-layer coupling to z neighbors, zJ > 0, and an antiferromagnetic interlayer coupling to z neighbors, zJ ′ < 0, is investigated by Monte Carlo simulations on a hexagonal lattice. The physical nature of the anomalous temperature bahavior of the sublattice magnetizations, which is found for certain values of r = zJ/zJ ′ an...
متن کاملPhoto-Induced Phase Transitions to Liquid Crystal Phases: Influence of the Chain Length from C8E4 to C14E4
Photo-induced phase transitions are characterized by the transformation from phase A to phase B through the absorption of photons. We have investigated the mechanism of the photo-induced phase transitions of four different ternary systems CiE4/alkane (i) with n = 8, 10, 12, 14; cyclohexane/H2O. We were interested in understanding the effect of chain length increase on the dynamics of transforma...
