Disordered mixed spin Ising system in a random field

N. Benayad, A. Fathi, L. Khaya

Abstract


The diluted mixed spin Ising system consisting of spin-1/2 and spin-1 in a random field is studied by the use of finite cluster approximation the framework of a single-site cluster theory. The equations are derived using a probability distribution method based on the use of Van der Waerden identities. The complete phase diagrams are investigated in the case of the simple cubic lattice (z=6), where the random field is bimodally and trimodally distributed. In particular, the influence of the magnetic sites concentration on the tricritical behaviour is examined in detail.
