Description

Within the effective field theory (EFT), staggered quadrupolar phase and bicritical point of spin-1 bond and anisotropy dilution Blume-Emery-Griffiths model is studied on simple cubic lattice in the restricted range of biquadratic interaction and bilinear interaction ratio α ≤ -1. The phase diagrams present a line of staggered quadrupolar-paramagnetic (SQ-P) phase and a line of ferromagnetic-paramagnetic (F-P) phase, separated by a bicritical point (BCP). A large negative ratio and two different dilution factors magnify the range of the SQ phase and reduce range of ferromagnetic phase in T-α or T-D plane. These parameters can assist the reentrant behavior of the SQ-P line and suppress that of the F-P line. The influence of bond dilution on the BCP is dissimilar to that of anisotropy dilution. There is a degenerate pattern at ground state in T-D plane. Some results obtained by the pure BEG model is in qualitative agreement with the results of Monte Carlo simulations.
