Static Thermodynamic Properties of Site-Random Magnetic Systems and the Percolation Problem

  • Conference paper
Magnetic Phase Transitions

Part of the book series: Springer Series in Solid-State Sciences ((SSSOL,volume 48))

Abstract

In recent years random or disordered magnetic systems have enjoyed a vivid interest of theoretical and experimental physicists. We mention spin glasses, amorphous magnets, diluted magnets, random field or random anisotropy magnets, random alloys of two magnetic species with competing spin anisotropies, etc. In this paper we want to concentrate on the problem of the site-diluted magnet, i.e. a magnetic system in which magnetic atoms are replaced by nonmagnetic atoms in increasing amounts. By this process the magnetic ordering temperature TC is decreased, and for sufficiently large impurity doping TC reduces to zero at a critical concentration PC of magnetic atoms, the value of which depends on the number of magnetic neighbours and on the lattice structure.
