Temperature dependences of the heat capacity C-p(T) (2-300 K) and lattice parameter a(T) (5-300 K) of LaF3 and (SrF2)(0.5)(LaF3)(0.5), in addition to the earlier studied SrF2, are experimentally investigated for the first time. The experimental dependences of C-p(T) and the unit cell volume V(T) of the studied fluorides are analysed using the Debye-Einstein model considering the influence of the disorder of their crystal structures. The parameters of the model are determined. An anomalous arrangement of the C-p(T) and V(T) curves of the solution with respect to the corresponding curves of the components is revealed. At low temperatures (T < 150 K), the values of C-p(T) and V(T) of the solution exceed the values calculated by the additivity rule. At higher temperatures (T > 150 K), deviations towards smaller values are observed. We have established that the disorder in solid-solution crystal structure is the common reason of anomalies revealed. It is found that at low temperatures, the cause of these anomalies is a decrease in the vibrational frequencies in the solid-solution metal sublattice upon the replacement of Sr with La, which has a large size and mass. Such a replacement leads to distortions of the original structure and an increase in its disorder. At elevated temperatures, the deviations are caused by an increase in the vibrational frequencies in the F- sublattice due to distortion of the crystal structure, as well as the increased influence of the anharmonicity of the disordered crystal lattice vibration.
