We study the phase diagram for 0<x<1 (x is the ratio between NNN and NN couplings!. When x,1/A2 an Ising transition and a Berezinskii-KosterlitzThouless transition are present. Both critical temperatures decrease with increasing x. For x.1/A2 the array undergoes a sequence of two transitions. On raising the temperature first the two sublattices decouple from each other and then, at higher temperatures, each sublattice becomes disordered. The structure of phase diagram remains the same if weak interaction with further neighbors is included.4 p.application/pdfeng(c) The American Physical Society, 2000SuperconductivitatPropietats magnètiquesRegla de les fases i equilibriSuperconductivityMagnetic propertiesPhase rule and equilibriuminfo:eu-repo/semantics/article513990info:eu-repo/semantics/openAccess
