Abstract
The site percolation problem on square lattices whose sites are grouped in two types of energetically different patches is studied. Several lattices formed by collections of either randomly or orderly localized and no overlapped patches of different sizes are generated. The system is characterized by two parameters, namely, the size of each patch, l, and the energy difference between the two kind of sites, ÎE. Particles are adsorbed at equilibrium on the lattice. The critical coverage is determined by means of Monte Carlo simulations and finite-size scaling analysis. The percolative behavior of the system as a function of the parameters characterizing the heterogeneity of the energetic surface topography is presented and discussed.
