Monte Carlo Study on the Magnetic Properties of the Silicene–Germanene Junction-Like Nanostructure

Abstract

In this work, we study the ground state phase diagrams and the magnetic properties of the mixed spins ([Formula: see text], [Formula: see text]) of the silicene–germanene junction-like nanostructure. In the first step, the ground state phase diagrams have been established to show the more stable configurations corresponding in different physical parameter planes. Besides, we have used the Monte Carlo simulations in order to study the magnetization and the susceptibility as a function of the temperature and the exchange coupling interaction and external magnetic field effects. Finally, we have presented and discussed the hysteresis cycles for specific values of the studied physical parameters.
