Thermodynamics properties of an anisotropic Ising antiferromagnet in both external longitudinal and transverse fields

We have studied the anisotropic two-dimensional nearest-neighbor Ising model with competitive interactions in both uniform longitudinal field H and transverse magnetic field Ω. Using the effective-field theory (EFT) with correlation in cluster with N=1 spin we calculate the thermodynamic properties as a function of temperature with values H and Ω fixed. The model consists of ferromagnetic interaction Jx in the x direction and antiferromagnetic interaction Jy in the y direction, and it is found that for H/Jy∈[0,2] the system exhibits a second-order phase transition. The thermodynamic properties are obtained for the particular case of λ=Jx/Jy=1 (isotropic square lattice).
