Abstract

Lattice dynamics for several ordered supercells with composition PbMgl/3Nb2/303 (PMN) were calculated with first-principles frozen phonon methods. Nominal symmetries of the supercelis studied are reduced by lattice instabilities. Laftice modes corresponding to these instabilities, equilibrium ionic positions, and infrared (IR) reflectivity spectra are reported.
