  Thermal properties - specific heat and heat conductivity coefficient - of
polycrystalline BaTiO3 films on massive substrates were studied as a function
of the temperature and the film thickness by ac-hot probe method. The anomalies
of specific heat with decreasing of the film thickness from 1100 to 20 nm
revealed the reducing of critical temperature (Tc) and excess entropy of the
ferroelectric phase transition, which becomes diffused. The critical thickness
of the film at which Tc = 0 estimated as 2.5 nm.
