Abstract. X-ray diffraction measurements showed that in the surface layer of perovskite structure BaTiO3, SrTiO3, PbTiO3 and KNbO3 crystals at elevated temperatures (500–1000 °C) reactions take place in the solid phase, associated with segregation in the direction to the surface of AO complexes, leading to the formation of a whole homologue series of crystalline compounds with the general formula AO ⋅ (ABO3) n , n=1, 2,…, 10,∞. Lowered oxygen partial pressure may inhibit the segregation processes and in the range of temperatures for which vaporisation of the AO complexes from the surface does not yet take place a suitable choice of oxygen pressure may lead to resynthesis of the compound.
