Abstract
A three-dimensional sixteen-vertex model on the diamond lattice describing proton ordering in KDP-type crystals is shown to exhibit both 1 st - and 2 nd -order phase transitions. The model's critical behavior was found, using analyses of series expansions and Monte Carlo simulations. When the transition is 2 nd -order, critical exponents belong to the universality class of the three-dimensional Ising model.
