Ba or La-Substituted lead niobate $(Pb_{1-x}Ba_x)_{1-y}La_{2y/3}Nb_2O_6$(PBLN), powders having needle shape are prepared by flux method using KCl and the effect of Ba or La substitution on morphology of obtained powders is examined. From these needle shape powders, grain-oriented ceramics are made by doctor-blade method and two-stage hot-pressing technique. The dielectric, piezoelectric and optical properties of the ceramics are also investigaated. Heating condition and the amount of substituted Ba or La have remarkable effects have large anisotropy in both permittivity and coupling factor depending on the pressing direction.
