Abstrakt: Solid solution crystals of ternary 1:1 (PbSc½Ta½O3-PbSc½Nb½O3) and 1:2 (PbMgNb2/3O3-PbSc½Nb½O3) perovskites were grown from the flux. X-ray supercell reflections due to B-cation ordering were observed for as-grown crystals. The same regularities of cation ordering during the crystal growth were found to be valid for both systems: the disordered structure is formed first even when the crystallization temperature is much lower than the temperature Tt of the compositional order-disorder phase transition and the disordered state is non-equilibrium. The ordering then starts via a diffusion-type mechanism, its rate depending greatly on the relation of crystallization temperature and Tt. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]
