Phase diagrams of the spin-1/2 Ising-Heisenberg model on a triangle-hexagon lattice

Abstract

Ground-state and finite-temperature phase diagrams of a geometrically frustrated spin-1/2 Ising-Heisenberg model on a triangle-hexagon lattice are investigated within the generalized star-triangle mapping transformation. It is shown that the ground state is constituted by two different spontaneously long-range ordered phases and one disordered spin-liquid phase.
