Ta2O5 single crystals have been grown by the laser heated pedestal growth (LHPG) technique up to several centimeters length with diameter of 1.1 mm. The crystal, characterized by X-ray diffraction, dielectric measurement, and thermal expansion analysis, has Htri-Wa2O5 symmetry. Dielectric permittivity, loss tangent along [001] and [110] direction were investigated over the temperature range from -180℃ to 100℃. Large dielectric anisotropy in 2O5 single crystal was observed. At room temperature, the dielectric permittivities (1 MHz) along [001] and [110] are 33.2 and 231.9, respectively. The reason of dielectric enhancement in Ta2O5 crystal grown by LHPG was also discussed.
