摘要
The coupled cluster method is applied to a spin-half model at zero temperature (T=0), which interpolates between Heisenberg antiferromagnets (HAFs) on a kagome and a square lattice. With respect to an underlying triangular lattice the strengths of the Heisenberg bonds joining the nearest-neighbor (NN) kagome sites are J(1)>= 0 along two of the equivalent directions and J(2)>= 0 along the third. Sites connected by J(2) bonds are themselves connected to the missing NN non-kagome sites of the triangular lattice by bonds of strength J(1)'>0. When J(1)'=J(1) and J(2)=0 the model reduces to the square-lattice HAF. The magnetic ordering of the system is investigated and its T=0 phase diagram discussed. Results for the kagome HAF limit are among the best available.
