Hysteresis behaviors in a ferrimagnetic Ising nanotube with hexagonal core-shell structure

Monte Carlo simulation has been employed to study the hysteresis behaviors of a ferrimagnetic mixed-spin (1, 3/2) Ising nanotube with hexagonal core-shell structure. The effects of different single-ion anisotropies, exchange couplings and temperature on the hysteresis loops of the system and sublattices are discussed in detail. Multiple hysteresis loops such as triple loops have been observed in the system under certain physical parameters. It is found that the anisotropy, the exchange coupling and the temperature strongly affect the coercivities and the remanences of the system and the sublattices. Comparing our results with other theoretical and experimental studies, a satisfactory agreement can be achieved qualitatively.
