| Sumario: | Abstract In the article, computer simulation on the behavior of a ferromagnetic thin film on a non-magnetic substrate by computer simulation is performed. The substrate is described by the two-dimensional Frenkel–Kontorova potential. The Ising model is used to describe the magnetic properties of a two-dimensional ferromagnetic film. The Wolf cluster algorithm is used to model the magnetic behavior of the film. A square lattice is considered for an unperturbed ferromagnetic film. Computer simulations show that mismatch of film and substrate periods results in film splitting into regions with different atomic structures. Magnetic properties for the obtained structure have been investigated. The hysteresis loop is calculated using the Metropolis algorithm. Deformations of the substrate lead to a decrease in the phase transition temperature. The Curie temperature decreases both when the substrate is compressed and when stretched. The change in phase transition temperature depends on the decreasing rate of exchange interaction with distance and the amplitude of interaction with the substrate. When the substrate is compressed, an increase in the amplitude of the interaction between the film and the substrate results in an increase in the phase transition temperature. The opposite effect occurs when the substrate is stretched. The hysteresis loop changes its shape and parameters when the substrate is deformed. Compression and stretching of the substrate results in a decrease in coercive force. The reduction in coercive force when compressing the substrate is greater than when stretching. The magnetization of the film is reduced by deformations at a fixed temperature. |
