Nucleation, growth and characterization of semiorganic nonlinear optical crystal sodium acetate doped L-tyrosine.

Sodium acetate doped L-tyrosine single crystal with dimensions 47×15×8 mm(3) was grown by slow evaporation solution growth technique. Nucleation kinetics of the growth of the material was studied to optimize the growth conditions. The grown doped crystal was then characterized using single crystal XRD, UV-vis-NIR, FTIR, NMR, SEM-EDAX and NLO studies.

Synthesis, growth, structural and optical studies of organic nonlinear optical material--piperazine-1,4-diium bis 2,4,6-trinitrophenolate.

Piperazine-1,4-diium bis 2,4,6-trinitrophenolate is one of the useful organic materials with nonlinear optical (NLO) and pharmaceutical applications. The material was grown by slow evaporation solution growth method at room temperature. The crystal system and lattice parameters were identified by single crystal XRD analysis.

Growth and optical, thermal, mechanical and surface morphology studies of semiorganic nonlinear optical material: Dichlorobis (l-proline) zinc (II) crystal.

The organometallic nonlinear optical material Dichlorobis (l-proline) zinc (II) (DCBPZ) was crystallized using solution growth technique. XRD data reveal that the grown crystal belongs to orthorhombic system with space group P212121. The crystals were characterized using UV-vis-NIR, FTIR and NMR spectral studies, SEM-EDAX analysis and Atomic force microscopy (AFM), thermal and microhardness studies.
