AFMSingleIonCubicSixthAnisotropySC
Calculates a residual contribution for the magnetic anisotropy energy.
Overview
Consider the following sixth-order free energy contribution,
where is the normalized sublattice magnetization. The vector is the oxygen octahedral antiphase tilt vector (for the material). The suffix SC
in this Kernel
stands for strong-coupling where we treat as a MOOSE Variable
. Therefore, we will need to compute additional off-diagonal jacobian entries. The effective field due to this term is,
The effective field is evaluated at every time step of the two sublattice LLG-LLB equation,
(1)
here is the electron gyromagnetic factor and the phenomenological Gilbert damping parameter. Ignoring the time derivative, moving over the RHS to the LHS, and multiplying by a test function , we have
Substituting the expression for and writing the above in index notation gives the residual contribution for the component,
The on- and off-diagonal jacobian entries are given by,
where is the shape function of the finite element method and if , we have the on-diagonal contributions and if we have the off-diagonal contributions. Note that also, since does not have cross-coupling between the sublattices (as is the case of other Kernels
such as AFMHomogeneousSublatticeExchange), then further off-diagonal components () where are zeroed. As mentioned above, we have the SC
suffix on this Kernel
which means we are treating as a MOOSE Variable
. Therefore, we have to compute
where only is nonzero.
