(1-x)PbMg1/3Nb2/3O3-(x)PbSc1/2Nb1/2O3 (PMN-PSN) solid solution crystals have been grown by the flux method in the whole concentration range. X-ray supercell reflections due to B-cation ordering were observed for as-grown crystals from the 0.1 < x < 0.65 compositional range. Though the ordered domains are rather large (~50 nm) the relaxor-like dielectric behavior is observed for compositions with x < 0.6. The diffusion of the dielectric permittivity maximum in as-grown crystals is the lowest at x = 0.6 and increases towards the end members of solid solution. Such behavior is explained within a Bragg-Williams approach by employing the random layer model. At x ~ 0.6 the excitation energy determined from the Vogel-Fulcher relation exhibits a jump which we regard to changing the kind of the polar regions from PbMg1/3Nb2/3O3 to PbSc1/2Nb1/2O3 related type.
