Simulations of magnetic order in chains with increasing lattice disorder.
(a) 4 × 18 particle chain with perfect triangular lattice (σg = 0), (b, c) 4 × 18 particle chain with disordered particle arrangement (σg = 0.2–0.4), (d) plot of the magnetic disorder σm vs. geometric disorder σg, obtained from a set of 35 simulations with varying σg, (e) plot of the normalized net magnetic moment M as a function of geometric disorder σg. Color-code as shown in Fig. 4.
