Abstract

We examine the behavior of the entropy (S d), enthalpy (H), and concentration of disordered fluoride ions (n) in LaF3 in a broad temperature range around its critical temperature using a model for structural lattice disordering. We analyze the relationship between the free energy of a crystal and LaF3 lattice disordering parameters: entropy, S d; anion sublattice disordering energy, E a; and the concentration of vacancy-interstitial defect complexes, n. H(T), n(T), and S d(T) data are obtained for the phase transition region.
