The authors report the results of temperature-dependent Brillouin scattering from both transverse and longitudinal acoustic waves, heat capacity studies as well as room temperature Raman scattering studies on M2O–MgO–WO3–P2O5 glasses (M=K,Rb). These results were used to obtain information about structure and various properties of the studied glasses such as fragility, elastic moduli, ratio of photoelastic constants, and elastic anharmonicity. They have found that both glasses have similar properties but replacement of K+ ions by Rb+ ions in the glass network leads to decrease of elastic parameters and P44 photoelastic constant due to increase of fragility. Based on Brillouin spectroscopy they show that a linear correlation between longitudinal and shear elastic moduli holds over a large temperature range. This result supports the literature data that the Cauchy-type relation represents a general rule for amorphous solids. An analysis of the Boson peak revealed that the form of the frequency distribution of the excess density of states is in agreement with the Euclidean random matrix theory. The reason of the observed shift of the maximum frequency of the Boson peak when K+ ions are substituted for Rb+ ions is also briefly discussed.

The temperature dependences of acoustic phonon mode and the central peak have been investigated in Pb[(In1/2Nb1/2)0.65Ti0.35]O3 single crystal by Brillouin scattering. Longitudinal acoustic phonon begins to show marked softening below the Burns temperature TB~700 K. The longitudinal acoustic phonon mode exhibits clear anomalies at the cubic-tetragonal phase transition temperature of 540 K and at the tetragonal-rhombohedral one of 460 K. Below 600 K, the relaxation time calculated from the phonon mode agrees well with that of the broad central peak, suggesting a coupling between the local polarization and strain fluctuations of polar nanoregions. This temperature has been identified as another characteristic temperature T* besides TB, where the formation of long-lived polar nanoregions accompanied by the local strain fields governs the relaxation dynamics.

Brillouin spectra measurements have been carried out from 800 to 100 K for Pb(Sc1/2Ta1/2)O3 in back-scattering geometry. The frequency of the longitudinal acoustic (LA) phonon begins to show marked softening followed by an increase in its width below the intermediate temperature T* = 450 K. The gradual increase in the width of the LA phonon below T* is attributed to the electrostrictive coupling between the local polarization and strain. The frequency of the LA phonon mode exhibits anomalous behavior around 295 K, the phase transition temperature. The width of the LA phonon exhibits a sharp Landau-Khalatnikov-like maximum at 295 K. A central peak begins to appear around T* and exhibits critical slowing down upon further cooling. The relaxation times calculated for the LA phonon and central peak indicate the order-disorder nature of the phase transition.
