Abstract

Using mean-field theory, we have studied the effect of quantum transverse field on the magnetic properties and multilayer transitions in the spin-3/2 Blume–Capel model with RKKY interaction. The system is formed by two magnetic multilayer materials, of different thicknesses, separated by a non magnetic spacer of thickness M. It is found that there exist critical transverse fields above which the multilayer transitions occur. This critical value decreases when increasing the thickness of the nonmagnetic spacer M. Phase diagram is established in different plane of space parameter.
