0.68 A, 02= 1.32 J~, the spacing below which puckering can be expected is 4.00 ,~. In an examinat ion of the s tructural t ransit ions of N a N b 0 a and its solid solutions with K-NbOa, Cd0.sNb0a, and Pb05Nb0a (Francombe & Lewis, 1957) it was found tha t the temperature at which the mult iple uni t cell becomes single varies with composition from above 800 ° C. to below room temperature. The lattice spacing at this temperature, which m a y be called the puckering transition temperature, was in each case found to be close to 3.94/~. In AgNb0a and AgTaO3 the corresponding experimental values are 3.96 .h and 3-95 h., respectively. Ferroelectric or antiferroelectric effects appear to p lay only a minor role in the s tructural t ransit ions of AgNbO 3. One criterion by which ferroelectric properties can be judged in the perovskite structures is the discontinuous nature of the Curie-point structure transit ion. Thus when unit-cell parameters are plotted against temperature, for substances like BaTi0a cr K-NbO3 which are strongly ferroelectric, or PbZr03 which is antiferroelectric, a very sharp discont inui ty is apparent at the Curie temperature. KNb08 shows a sudden l inear distortion of 1-6% at the Curie temperature (Shirane et al., 1954) associated with a spontaneous polarization of 26 #C.cm. -9 (Triebwasser & Halpern, 1955). For AgNb0a the discontinuous change of fl from 90 ° to 90 ° 15' at 325 ° C. corresponds to a l inear distortion of 0.2%, and the spontaneous polarization observed is also small. Wi th AgTa0a the structure t ransi t ion at 370 ° C. is comparat ively smooth and this probably indicates the absence of ferroelectricity. In this connection it is notable tha t the effect of AgTa0a in solid solution with AgNbOa is to lower the measured values of permitt ivi ty. In AgTa0a the changes in structure observed at high temperatures probably arise almost ent irely from ionic packing effects.
