We have determined all eight components of the piezoelectric tensor of a monoclinic crystal, BiB3O6, by means of synchrotron X-ray diffraction technique. The experiments have been performed on a four circle goniometer using the ω-scan method introduced by Graafsma [1] which is universal in the choice of appropriate reflections. The determined values of the piezoelectric tensor are in good agreement with those obtained earlier for BiB3O6 with the use of an optical Michelson interferometer.
