Consider a solid containing Natoms per unit volume, each atom having a magnetic dipole moment . Suppose the direction ofcan be only parallel or anti-parallel to an externally applied magnetic field (this will be the case if is due to the spin of a single electron). According to statistical mechanics, the probability of an atom being in a state with energy Uis proportional toe-UKT, where Tis the temperature and kis Boltzmann鈥檚 constant. Thus, because energy Uis, the fraction of atoms whose dipole moment is parallel to is proportional toe渭叠KTand the fraction of atoms whose dipole moment is anti-parallel to is proportional toe-渭叠KT. (a) Show that the magnitude of the magnetization of this solid isM=渭狈tanh(渭叠kT). Here tanh is the hyperbolic tangent function:tanh(x)=(ex-e-x)/(ex+e-x)(b) Show that the result given in (a) reduces toM=狈渭2B/kTfor渭叠kT(c) Show that the result of (a) reduces torole="math" localid="1662964931865" M=狈渭forrole="math" localid="1662964946451" 渭叠kT.(d) Show that both (b) and (c) agree qualitatively with Figure.

Short Answer

Expert verified
  1. Magnetization M=狈渭tanh渭叠kT.
  2. Magnetization Mfor渭叠kT is,M=狈渭2BkBT.
  3. Magnetization Mfor渭叠kTis,M=狈渭.
  4. The plotted graph has a similar nature, so (b) and (c) agree qualitatively with figure 32-14.

Probability of dipole moment to point upp()=e渭叠/kT

Understanding the concepts of magnetization

We will use relation for magnetization and average magnetic moment formula to derive the required expression.

Formula:

Ifp(xi)is the probability of occurrence ofxi, then the average of x is defined as

x=i=1Nxip(xi)i=1Np(xi)

Average magnetic moment is given by

=i=1Nip(i)i=1Np(i)

Magnetization per unit volume isM=1m3=

03

(a) Calculations of the magnitude of the magnetization

Average magnetic moment is given by

=i=1Nip(i)i=1Np(i)

The solid contains N atoms per unit volume, and all atoms are of the same type. Therefore, the magnetic moments due to each atom will be the same in magnitude. Hence by this argument, we set

1=2=3=N=

Using this condition, summation becomes

=i=1Nip(i)i=1Np(i)=狈渭p()i=1Np()

Let =+if it is pointing parallel to the appliedBextfield;

And=if it is pointing anti-parallel to the appliedBextfield.

Then the average magnetic moment becomes

role="math" localid="1662965537727" =狈渭p()i=1Np()=N(+)p(+)+N()p()p(+)+p()=狈渭p(+)狈渭p()p(+)+p()

Magnetization per unit volume is

M=1m3=; it then becomes

M=狈渭e+渭叠kT狈渭e渭叠kTe+渭叠kT+e渭叠kT=狈渭e+渭叠kTe渭叠kTe+渭叠kT+e渭叠kT

M=狈渭tanh渭叠kT

MagnetizationM=狈渭tanh渭叠kT

(b) Calculations of the magnetization M for role="math" localid="1662965751913" μB≪kT

As 渭叠kT,which implies渭叠kT1

When渭叠kT1

e渭叠kT1渭叠kT

M=狈渭1+渭叠kT1渭叠kT1+渭叠kT+1渭叠kT=2渭叠kT2狈渭=狈渭2BkBT

Hence magnetizationM for 渭叠kTis M=狈渭2BkBT.

05

(c) Calculations of the magnetization M for μB≫kT

As 渭叠kT,which implies渭叠kT1

tanh渭叠kT1

M=狈渭tanh渭叠kT=狈渭

MagnetizationM for 渭叠kTis M=狈渭.
