Abstract

Heat capacity of the PbMg1/3Nb2/3O3 compound is measured using the methods of adiabatic and differential scanning calorimetry in the temperature range 80–750 K. Two blurred anomalies on the C p (T) dependence are observed in wide temperature intervals of 200–400 K and 500–700 K. The results of studies are discussed together with data on the structure and phonon spectrum in the framework of spherical random bond-random field model.
