The ternary alloy with a structure of Prussian blue analogs in a transverse field

The effects of applied transverse field on transition and compensation temperatures of the ABpC1-pABpC1-p ternary alloy consisting of spins SA=32, SB=2SB=2, and SC=52 are investigated by the use of a mean-field theory. The structure and the spin values of the model correspond to the Prussian blue analog of the type (FepIIMn1-pII)1.5[CrIII(CN)6]·nH2O. We find that two or even three compensation points may be induced by a transverse field for the system with appropriate values of the parameters in the model Hamiltonian. In particular, the influence of a transverse field on the compensation point in the ground state is examined.
