The difference between (s1+s2)-type and s2-type of superlattice structures were connected with the intensity distributions of X-ray diffuse scattering. Moreover, the diffraction peaks from (s1+s2)-type showed the temperature dependence in their peak positions and intensity distribution of the diffuse scattering at low-temperature. It is considered that the differences in the intensity distribution of the diffuse scattering is originated from the coupling between phonon and phason.
