AI Article Synopsis
- Bulk crystals of the newly discovered organic nonlinear optical material PMPT were created using a slow evaporation method with ethanol as a solvent, crystallizing in a monoclinic structure with a specific symmetry.
- The identity and formation of PMPT were confirmed through various analyses including microanalysis, X-ray diffraction, and density measurements, while its atomic and functional structures were verified using NMR and FTIR spectrums.
- Optical and thermal properties were examined through UV-Visible and photoluminescence studies, revealing the material’s stability up to 199 °C and its mechanical strength assessed by Vickers micro hardness tests.
Article Abstract
Bulk crystals of newly identified organic nonlinear optical material 4-methylanilinium p-toluenesulfonate (PMPT) were grown by slow evaporation solution growth method using ethanol as a solvent. It crystallizes in monoclinic system with a noncentrosymmetric space group P2(1). The formation of the title compound was confirmed through microanalysis, X-ray diffraction and density measurements. The proton positions and functional groups have been identified and confirmed through nuclear magnetic resonance and Fourier transform infrared spectrums respectively. Optical properties are determined by UV-Visible and photoluminescence spectroscopic studies to explore its efficacy towards device fabrications. Thermal studies exhibited that the newly obtained PMPT crystals are stable up to 199 °C. Its mechanical strength was studied by Vickers micro hardness studies.
