Bi deficient, Mn doped 0.92(Na0.5Bi0.5) TiO3-0.08(K0.5Bi0.5)TiO3 single crystals were grown by carefully controlled top-seeded solution growth method. Local structures were investigated by transmission electron microscopy. The site occupation and valence state of manganese were characterized by electron paramagnetic resonance spectrum. The leakage current density in the as-grown single crystals is effectively depressed. The introduced defect complexes suppress the temperature induced phase transformation, increasing the depolarization temperature (165 degrees C) and thermal stability of ferroelectric properties.
