ABSTRACTThe Ising model of a two-dimensional ferromagnetic crystal containing defects is considered. It is shown that the combinatorial method is particularly appropriate to the investigation of the two-dimensional defect crystal and how it may be readily modified to calculate the partition function for such a crystal. It is found that the cooperative behaviour of the infinite perfect crystal, as indicated by the occurrence of a logarithmic singularity in the specific heat as a function of temperature, is not destroyed in the defect crystal; the singularity persists, though at a progressively lower temperature as the density of defects is increased, until a high density of defects is reached. The value of this limiting density of defects, above which the cooperative behaviour is destroyed, is calculated.

We have considered a two-dimensional Ising model on a 4-6-12 lattice. The partition function is evaluated exactly by the method of Pfaffian. The Ising model on a ruby lattice is a special case of our model.
