Abstract This paper stuides the magnetization and quantum fluctuations of an antiferro-antiferromagnetic (AF-AF) double-layer at zero temperature. It is found that the exchanges and anisotropy constants affect the quantum fluctuations of spins. If the anisotropy exists, there will be no acoustic energy branch in the system. The anisotropy constant, antiferromagnetic intralayer and interlayer coupling have important roles in a balance of the quantum competition.

Altmetric calculates a score based on the online attention an article receives. Each coloured thread in the circle represents a different type of online attention. The number in the centre is the Altmetric score. Social media and mainstream news media are the main sources that calculate the score. Reference managers such as Mendeley are also tracked but do not contribute to the score. Older articles often score higher because they have had more time to get noticed. To account for this, Altmetric has included the context data for other articles of a similar age.
