R. S. Katiyar Received 1 April 2004; published 1 November 2004 Raman scattering in relaxor ferroelectric PbMg1∕3Ta2∕3O3 (PMT) was investigated in the single-crystalline form in the temperature range of 20–295 K . An anomalous temperature dependence of the integrated intensity and the Raman line contours were found at the diffuse phase transition. A correlation between the anomalies in the integrated intensities and the dispersion of the dielectric response was observed. The distortions of Raman lines with decreasing temperature are discussed. ©2004 The American Physical Society
