TbAl(3)(BO(3))(4) single crystal was grown from a K(2)Mo(3)O(10)-B(2)O(3) system using the top-seeded high temperature solution method (TSSG), 20 mm×9 mm×7 mm in size. The grown crystal was characterized by x-ray diffraction analysis showing that the crystal has a trigonal structure and the space group is R32 with lattice parameters of a = b = 9.293(13) Å, c = 7.249(6) Å. Faraday rotations of TbAl(3)(BO(3))(4) crystal were investigated at room temperature at wavelengths of 532, 633, and 1064 nm. Finally, the Verdet constants were measured at V = -108.8, -85.7, and -20.8 rad/mT for 532, 633, and 1064 nm, respectively.
