For lead, and Magnesium and niobium atoms, the optimum shift directions from the special positions were not a single direction but spherical shifts were observed. For oxygen atom, it was confirmed that the optimum shift direction was not one ring on XY plane but two parallel rings away from XY plane. PMN began to decompose into polycrystalline Pyrochlore type compound at 600℃. The mechanism of decomposition was discussed from the view point of crystal structure., application/pdf}, pages = {8--12}, title = {Crystal Structural Studies of Thermal Decomposition Process of PbMg_<1/3>Nb_<2/3>O_3 Single Crystal into Pyrochlore Type Compound}, volume = {102}, year = {1994} }
