Description
We suggest considering the Burns temperature in lead containing relaxor ferroelectrics as the temperature, at which Pb becomes off-center and nearly randomly occupies positions around the center on a sphere with the radius, which increases with the temperature decrease. The significance of the Burns temperature, in this approach, is the crossover between the soft-mode and order-disorder dynamics. The lattice parameter, birefringence and neutron scattering experiments are analyzed in the light of this model.
