dc.descriptionUltrathin magnetic films can be modeled as an anisotropic Heisenberg model with long range dipolar interactions. It is believed that the phase diagram presents three phases: A ordered ferromagnetic phase (I), a phase characterized by a change from out-of-plane to in-plane in the magnetization (II), and a high temperature paramagnetic phase (III). It is claimed that the border lines from phase I to III and II to III are of second order and from I to II is first order. In the present work we have performed a very careful Monte Carlo simulation of the model. Our results strongly support that the line separating phase II and III is of the BKT type.
