摘要
Phase transitions from low-temperature (ordered) phases to high-temperature (disordered/homogeneous) phases for different fillings are studied on a triangular lattice using the spin-dependent Falicov-Kimball model. Numerical diagonalization and Monte Carlo simulation methods are used to study thermodynamic properties of the system. It has been observed that low-temperature ordered phases persist up to a finite temperature and after reaching a critical temperature (), homogeneous phases are observed for all parameter space. We have also calculated the temperature dependence of specific heat and observed a sharp jump at indicating the phase transition, and this increases with increase in on-site Coulomb correlation U and electron fillings.
