Abstract
A generalization of the site-bond percolation problem was studied, in which pairs of neighboring sites (site dimers) and bonds are occupied irreversibly, randomly, and independently on homogeneous square surfaces. A dimer is composed of two segments and occupies two adjacent sites. Each segment can be either a conductive segment (segment type A) or a nonconductive segment (segment type B). Two types of dimers are considered, AA and AB, and the connectivity analysis is carried out by accounting only for the conductive segments (segments type A) in combination with bonds. For the combination of dimers and bonds, two different criteria were analyzed: the union or the intersection between the adsorbed percolating particles and the bonds. By means of numerical simulations and finite-size scaling analysis, the complete phase diagram separating a percolating from a non-percolating region was determined.
