Abstract

The study of light scattering near structural phase transitions represents a growing field of research, and a number of reviews on the subject are available (see for example, Refs1–6). However we believe it is worthwhile to present one more review aimed at elucidation of the question in terms of phenomenological theory, which is rather simple, but quite general. In this case it is especially convenient to use that phenomenological theory which describes a crystal as a continuous medium, i.e. from the macroscopic point of view, and so makes it possible to neglect inessential details of structures and interactions. Below we use the Landau theory only since the critical (scaling) region does not seem to have been observed reliably for structural phase transitions. We do not claim a comprehensive explanation of experimental data but try to characterize the state and possibilities of the theory. All questions touched upon here are discussed in far more detail in the authors’ article5 at the Fourth International Meeting on Ferroelectricity (Leningrad, September 1977). The present paper differs from Ref. 5 mainly by more emphasis on the “central peak problem.”
