field, and the electric field in dominating the dielectric and magnetic
properties of the multiferroic bilayers.
In recent years, the mixed-spin (2, 5/2) Ising system is one of the
most widely studied mixed-spin Ising systems. On the one hand, this
model can provide the proper theoretical models for the molecular-
based magnetic materials [35–39]. On the other hand, it has been used
to understand the magnetic and thermodynamic properties of some
low-dimensional magnetic materials such as nanoislands [40,41], Ke-
kulene structure [42]. By dynamic mean-field calculations, Mehmet
Ertas have studied the dynamic hysteresis behaviors of the two-di-
mensional mixed-spin (2, 5/2) ferrimagnetic Ising model in an oscil-
lating magnetic field [43]. It is worth noting that this structure is the-
oretically constructed into a double-layer honeycomb lattice. By using
the Monte Carlo simulation, Yasuyuki et al. have studied a mixed spin-2
and spin-5/2 Ising system on a honeycomb lattice [44,45]. Recently,
much attention has been also paid to the graphene systems with hon-
eycomb structure [46–50].
Electrical phenomena are closely related to magnetic phenomena in
solid physics. One can understand the electrical behavior from the Fig. 1. Antiferroelectric/ferroelectric Ising bilayer structure with the honey-
concept of magnetism. There are many relationships between electrical comb structure has been defined here. J1 and J2 represent the intralayer anti-

changes as those given in Fig. 4(a), which means the effect of J3 on the
P is similar to that of J1. These distinct P curves come from the com-
petition between the exchange coupling and temperature. Similarly,
from Fig0. 5(b) and (c), the saturation values of P1 and P2 can be also
determined by the J3, whereas those of P3 and P4 are unchanged when
|J3| changes from 0.1 to 2.0. This P behaviors are similar to those ob-
served in Ref. [71]. In Fig. 5 (d), the peak of every χ curve shifts to high
temperature with |J3| increasing, suggesting the TB can be enhanced by
strengthening interlayer exchange coupling |J3|. The results are also
consistent with those of ferroelectric bilayer composed of two different
ferroelectric slabs with antiferroelectric interfacial coupling [33].
Finally, the effect of the E on the polarization and the susceptibility
when D1 = −1.0, D2 = −0.5, J1 = −0.5 and |J3| = 0.8, as presented
in Fig. 6(a)-(d). It can be seen from Fig. 6(a) that the saturation values

in Fig. 2(a). That means the effect of J1 on the P is similar to that of D1.
For certain parameters, the system shows two saturation values
P = 1.0, 1.25 at the T = 0, which can be analyzed from the sublattice
polarization in Fig. 4(b) and (c). Note that the saturation values of the
P1 and P2 take small values for small values of |J1|. For example, when
J1 = −0.1, P1 = 1.5 and P2 = −0.5, and when J1 = −0.5, P1 = 2.5
and P2 = −1.5, which lead to the appearance of the saturation value of
P = 1.25. This is because the weak exchange coupling J1 can reduce the
relationship between sublattices A and B as to force them to stay at the
low spin states. In Fig. 4(d), the TB increases with |J1| increasing, which
is opposite to that of D2 on TB.

Three saturation values P = 1.0, 1.25 and 1.5 come from mainly the
change in the saturation value of the P2 (P2 = −2.5, −1.5, −0.5) in
Fig. 6(b) and (c) because the spins of sublattice B align against the di-
rection of the E. Remarkably, the experimental results of
PbZr0.51Ti0.49O3 thin films also revealed that the polarization increases
with the increase of the electric field [72]. From Fig. 6 (d), as E in-
creases, the χ curves become broader and the TB also becomes higher.

means the bigger E, the more stable the system. In Fig. 12(b), the peak
of the C curve moves towards the high temperature area with E in-

crystal-fields or increasing exchange couplings and external electric
field can make the system more stable. The results are consistent with
those in ferrielectric nanowires [53], nanoparticles [54] and ternary
nanoislands [80].
