Abstract

Based on the Monte Carlo simulation and the RKKY model, magnetic properties of mixed spin (3/2,1,1/2) ferrimagnetic ternary alloys of the type ABxC1-x are investigated. To do this, the influence of exchange energy and single ion-anisotropy on the magnetic hysteresis loop and magnetic susceptibility of ternary alloys with amorphous structures are examined. Our simulations reveal that the changes in exchange energy and single ion-anisotropy have a great influence on the magnetic hysteresis loop. It is seen that for some values of these parameters the stepwise curves and the triple hysteresis loop are appeared. Furthermore, the influence of concentration on the behaviour of thermal magnetization is studied. Our results indicate that for some values of concentration, the compensation temperature becomes less than the phase temperature.
