A semi-infinite ferromagnetic simple cubic Ising lattice which has nonmagnetic impurities substituted for the magnetic species only at the surface is investigated with the use of a new type of effective-field theory with correlation. The surface magnetism is examined as a function of modified exchange J, = J(1+6) and concentration P of magnetic atoms at the surface. The critical value 5" transition temperatures T"and phase diagram for surface ordering are obtained as functions of P and A. The reduced magnetization curves of surface and bulk are also studied. We obtain some characteristic behaviors of magnetism at the diluted surface.
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
