Title Statistical mechanics of CuO2 plane in the presence of localized holes
Date 1988-10
Description Both La2Cu04 and YBa2Cu306 are antiferromagnetic insulators, becoming less so as holes are introduced on individual oxygen bonds. We evaluate the free energy of a single Cu02 plane in the Ising representation. Beyond a critical concentration xo=0.29289 holes per O1O2 cell, antiferromagnetism is replaced by a paramagnetic phase having short-range order only. The ground - state entropy is 0 at x = 0, 0.0697 per Cu02 cell at x = xo , and 0.6931 (i.e., ln2) at x = 1 .
