Abstract

By means of the Monte Carlo method, we have simulated the mixed-spin-1/2 and spin-2 Ising ferrimagnetic system on a honeycomb lattice. We studied the variations of the magnetization as functions of the crystal field and the temperature and obtained the phase diagram of the system for various crystal field values. We have found that the system cannot display a point of compensation if we consider only nearest-neighbor interactions and the crystal field effect. Also, the tricritical point does not exist. To the best of our knowledge, this system has never been studied using the Monte Carlo method.
