Two dielectric loss peaks were observed: peak Pd at about 600 K and peak P5 around 720 K. Peak Pd is a relaxational peak and associated with the short-range diffusion of oxygen ions, while peak P5 hardly changes its position and dramatically decreases in height with increasing frequency, exhibiting non-relaxational nature. With increasing Ln^3+ concentration, the heights of peak Ph and Pd increase at first and then decrease after passing a maximum at 15% doping. It is suggested that peak P5 is related to the phase transition of a static disordered state to a dynamic disordered state in oxygen ions/vacancies distribution.
