Title Magnetization on vicinal ferromagnetic surfaces
Date 1997
Description Using Ising model Monte Carlo simulations, we show a strong dependence of surface magnetization on surface miscut angle. For ferromagnetic surfaces, when surface spin exchange coupling is larger than that of the bulk, the surface magnetic ordering temperature decreases, toward the bulk Curie temperature, with increasing miscut angle; when surface spin exchange coupling is smaller than that of the bulk, a crossover behavior occurs: at low temperature, the surface magnetization decreases with increasing miscut angle; at high temperature, the reverse is true.
