Notes:
We find that the conventional method to calculate the soft-mode frequency of the pseudospin model is incorrect, and present a valid modified method. It is demonstrated that the conventional method does not show the soft-mode frequency going to zero at a critical temperature in the presence of random internal fields, while the frequency calculated by our modified method goes to zero in random fields at a critical temperature. For the field-induced phase transition relaxor ferroelectrics, the soft-mode frequency decreases to zero at the first-order phase transition temperature though the symmetry has been destroyed at high temperatures under an external field. © 2001 American Institute of Physics.
