Phase relations have been investigated within the Sr{sub 4}Nb{sub 4}O{sub 14}-Sr{sub 5}Nb{sub 4}O{sub 15}-SrTiO{sub 3} region of the SrO-Nb{sub 2}O{sub 5}-TiO{sub 2} system with a view to clarifying the occurrence of perovskite-related phases. Most samples were prepared from oxide or carbonate powders heated in air at 1,350 C but some samples were also prepared by argon arc melting. Overall phase analysis was carried out by powder X-ray diffraction. Two phase lines contain a homologous series of layered perovskite phases. These are the Sr{sub n}(Nb,Ti){sub n}O{sub 3n+2} (4 {le} n {le} 7) series on the Sr{sub 4}Nb{sub 4}O{sub 14}-SrTiO{sub 3} line and Sr{sub n}(Nb,Ti){sub n{minus}1}O{sub 3n} (5 {le} n {le} 7) on the Sr{sub 5}Nb{sub 4}O{sub 15}-SrTiO{sub 3} line. The microstructures in these homologous series were clarified by transmission electron microscopy. This revealed both ordered and disordered intergrowths of the perovskite homologues and allowed the defect microstructure of SrTiO{sub 3} in contact with the layered perovskites to be determined.
