Monte Carlo simulations of a ferromagnetic-FeF2 system

Description
In this work, we perform Monte Carlo simulations to study the magnetization reversal mechanism in ferromagnetic thin films on FeF2. In particular, we emulate a bilayer AFM/FM structure, where the AFM interface corresponds to an uncompensated (100) plane. The magnetic moments are modeled by classical Heisenberg spin variables. Our analysis focus on the role of the exchange interaction JAF between the FM spins and the spins belonging to the AFM interface on the reversal mechanisms of the magnetization. By simulating hysteresis loops we study the effect of temperature on the bias field
