Abstract

Effect of uniaxial single-ion anisotropy upon magnetic properties of a mixed spin-1/2 and spin- S ( S ⩾ 1 ) Ising model on a bathroom tile (4–8) lattice is examined within the framework of an exact star-triangle mapping transformation. Particular attention is focused on the phase diagrams established for several values of the quantum spin number S. It is shown that the mixed-spin bathroom tile lattice exhibits very similar phase boundaries as the mixed-spin honeycomb lattice whose critical points are merely slightly enhanced with respect to the former ones. The influence of uniaxial single-ion anisotropy upon the total magnetization vs. temperature dependence is particularly investigated as well.
