Abstract
We study the ground state and thermodynamic properties of the spin-1 antiferromagnetic Heisenberg model on an isotropic triangular lattice with nearest-neighbor and next-nearest-neighbor exchange interactions. The auxiliary fermionic representation of spin operators within the Popov-Fedotov functional integral formalism is used to calculate thermodynamic quantities. The Luttinger-Tisza procedure is used to represent the classical ground state energy in term of the magnetic order vector , which allows considering the contribution of fluctuations to the free energy of the system. The results obtained are compared with those of linear spin wave approximation and other methods. The effect of magnetic frustration on the sublattice magnetization, energy excitation spectrum and specific heat of the ordered magnetic phase will also be discussed in detail.
期刊介绍:
The Journal of Magnetism and Magnetic Materials provides an important forum for the disclosure and discussion of original contributions covering the whole spectrum of topics, from basic magnetism to the technology and applications of magnetic materials. The journal encourages greater interaction between the basic and applied sub-disciplines of magnetism with comprehensive review articles, in addition to full-length contributions. In addition, other categories of contributions are welcome, including Critical Focused issues, Current Perspectives and Outreach to the General Public.
Main Categories:
Full-length articles:
Technically original research documents that report results of value to the communities that comprise the journal audience. The link between chemical, structural and microstructural properties on the one hand and magnetic properties on the other hand are encouraged.
In addition to general topics covering all areas of magnetism and magnetic materials, the full-length articles also include three sub-sections, focusing on Nanomagnetism, Spintronics and Applications.
The sub-section on Nanomagnetism contains articles on magnetic nanoparticles, nanowires, thin films, 2D materials and other nanoscale magnetic materials and their applications.
The sub-section on Spintronics contains articles on magnetoresistance, magnetoimpedance, magneto-optical phenomena, Micro-Electro-Mechanical Systems (MEMS), and other topics related to spin current control and magneto-transport phenomena. The sub-section on Applications display papers that focus on applications of magnetic materials. The applications need to show a connection to magnetism.
Review articles:
Review articles organize, clarify, and summarize existing major works in the areas covered by the Journal and provide comprehensive citations to the full spectrum of relevant literature.
