摘要
The magnetic properties of an antiferromagnetic bond alternating spin-l/2 zigzag chain with asymmetrical ferro- magnetic next-nearest-neighbour exchange interactions at finite temperature are investigated by using the many-body Green＇s function theory. It is found that the ferrimagnetic ordering does not appear in the symmetrical next-nearest- neighbour coupling case, and takes place only for the asymmetrical next-nearest-neighbour case at finite temperature rather than the ground state. Furthermore, as the asymmetry degree of the next-nearest-neighbour exchange inter- actions increases, the ferrimagnetism becomes more and more dominant. It is shown that the elementary excitation spectra are responsible for the observed magnetic behaviour.
