SrBi2Ta2O9 (SBT) single crystals were produced by high temperature self-flux solution method using a Bi2O3 flux modified with B2O3. The processing conditions were optimized to obtain large and translucent SBT crystals with a layered habit and typical dimensions of approximately 7-1ptx-1pt5-1ptx-1pt0.2 mm. X-ray diffraction and x-ray topography measurements revealed the major faces of the crystals with natural rectangular platelet morphology are perfectly (001)-orientated with edges directed along the [110] directions. High quality of the crystals was confirmed by rocking curves (half width of 0.04o for the (0 0 18) reflection) and by ferroelectric measurements. The anisotropy in the dielectic and ferroelectric properties was investigated both along the [110] (ab-plane) and the [001] (c-axis) directions. The growth mechanism, morphology and dielectric anisotropy of the SBT crystal platelets are discussed based on its crystallographic structure. H. Amori n and I.K.
