Monte Carlo Modelling of Magnetic and Thermodynamic Features of Rb3CoCl5 and Dy3Al5O12 Magnetic Systems

Abstract

In our simulations, we considered two typical magnetic materials, while the first one includes the 3d-transition metal, such as cobalt which is responsible of the presence of magnetism in pyrochlore structure Rb3CoCl5. The second magnetic material was chosen to have 4f-rare earth metal, namely dysprosium that can induce magnetism in garnet material Dy3Al5O12. A general agreement was found between our results and the previous works. In our calculations, we employed the classical Ising model for the above mentioned realistic materials. We specifically studied the magnetic properties over a range of temperature including the critical temperature and above it. To understand the magnetic phase transition, the effect of magnetic field was involved in the classical Ising model.
