Spin-reorientation critical dynamics in the two-dimensional XY model with a domain wall
2019
In recent years, static and dynamic properties of non-$180^\circ$ domain walls in magnetic materials have attracted a great deal of interest. In this paper, spin-reorientation critical dynamics in the two-dimensional XY model is investigated with Monte Carlo simulations and theoretical analyses based on the Langevin equation. At the Kosterlitz-Thouless phase transition, dynamic scaling behaviors of the magnetization and the two-time correlation function are carefully analyzed, and critical exponents are accurately determined. When the initial value of the angle between adjacent domains is slightly lower than $\pi$, a critical exponent is introduced to characterize the abnormal power-law increase of the magnetization in the horizontal direction inside the domain interface, which is measured to be $\psi=0.0568(8)$. Besides, the relation $\psi=\eta/2z$ is analytically deduced from the Langevin dynamics in the long-wavelength approximation, well consistent with numerical results.
