Abstract

The spin-SHeisenberg antiferromagnet on the orthogonal-dimer lattice is studied. In most of the investigations of the antiferromagnet on this lattice beginning with the study by Shastry and Sutherland, theS=1/2case has intensively been treated. In the present study, the cases ofS = 1 and 3/2 are particularly treated by the numerical-diagonalization method based on the Lanczos algorithm applied to finite-size clusters. We successfully capture the edge of the exact-dimer phase and that of the Néel-ordered phase. A significant finding is the existence of an intermediate phase between both the edges irrespective of spin-S.
