Magnetocaloric effect in the spin-1/2 Ising-Heisenberg diamond chain with the four-spin interaction (1310.0277v2)
Published 1 Oct 2013 in cond-mat.stat-mech and cond-mat.str-el
Abstract: The magnetocaloric effect in the symmetric spin-1/2 Ising-Heisenberg diamond chain with the Ising four-spin interaction is investigated using the generalized decoration-iteration mapping transformation and the transfer-matrix technique. The entropy and the Gruneisen parameter, which closely relate to the magnetocaloric effect, are exactly calculated to compare the capability of the system to cool in the vicinity of different field-induced ground-state phase transitions during the adiabatic demagnetization.
