We studied the exchange coupling and decoupling occurring in a nanocomposite spin system based on a 3D Heisenberg model by means of Monte Carlo numerical computation simulation. Different from conventional micromagnetism approach which usually adopts finite elements method to compute, in a top-down way, the magnetic property of micromagnetic ensemble in micron even nanometer scale, our approach in this paper is peculiar to the structure of a complex spin lattice, i.e. two species of spins building up from single spin to cluster spins in a bottom-up way. The simulation revealed the influence of exchange coupling constant Jab, the size of cluster spins d and system reduced temperature t upon the exchange coupling and decoupling between component spin phases of a nanocomposite magnets, respectively. Smaller value of Jab, larger d and lower temperature t usually lead to the decoupling of originally exchange-coupled component phases and the occurrence of a characteristic two-stage shoulder with an inflexion on the demagnetization curve. The results reported in this paper are of, to some extent, universality and applicable to other dual-phase magnetic systems since our simulation simply focus on a pure duplex spin system rather than a specific material and all physical variables were treated in a reduced form.
