Acid Hydrochloride

The semi-organic nonlinear optical single crystal of L-glutamic acid hydrochloride was grown by slow evaporation solution growth technique at room temperature. The cell parameters of the grown crystal were estimated by single crystal X-ray diffraction analysis. The presence of various functional groups was identified from Fourier transform infrared analysis. The transmission spectrum of this crystal show that the lower cut-off wavelength lies at 248 nm. Thermal analysis was performed to study the thermal stability of the grown crystal. The Kurtz powder second harmonic generation test shows that the crystal is a potential candidate for optical second harmonic generation. Mechanical properties of the grown crystal were determined and Vickers' hardness number was calculated.

Nonlinear Optical Applications

Zinc-tris thiourea sulphate (ZTS) is one of the promising semiorganic nonlinear optical materials; it is useful for nonlinear optical applications. The grown crystals were subjected to single crystal Xray diffraction, UV-visible spectrum, FTIR, microhardness and SHG studies. Single crystal X- ray diffraction analysis revealed that the grown crystal belongs to orthorhombic system with space groupPca21 . Various functional groups present in the sample were identified by FTIR analysis. UV visible transmittance spectrum shows that the wide transmittance and lower cut-off wavelength. The mechanical property of the grown crystal has been analysed by Vickers microhardness test. Second harmonic generation was confirmed by using Nd: YAG laser. The second harmonic generation results confirmed that the crystal has better nonlinearity than KDP crystal.

Monoclinic System

Single crystals of bis 2,5-dimethylanilinium sulfate (bis 2,5-DAS) were grown by slow evaporation solution growth technique at room temperature. The crystalline nature of the grown crystal was confirmed by the single crystal X-ray data. Bis 2,5-DAS crystal was found to crystallize in monoclinic system with non-centrosymmetric space group Cc. The various functional groups presented in the crystal were confirmed by FT-IR spectroscopic studies. Optical transmittance of the grown crystal was studied by UV–Vis–NIR spectroscopy. The dielectric loss and dielectric constant measurement as a frequency and temperature were measured on bis 2,5-DAS single crystal. The thermal stability and decomposition stages of the grown crystal were studied by TG-DTA analysis. Microhardness measurements revealed that bis 2,5-DAS belongs to a soft material category. Laser damage threshold studies were carried out for the grown crystal. The second harmonic generation of the crystal was confirmed and the efficiency was measured using Kurtz Perry powder method.

Nonlinear Optical Process

Here, we propose a novel plasmonic structure, called asymmetric plasmonic nanocavity grating (APNCG), which is shown to dramatically enhance nonlinear optical process of second harmonic generation (SHG). The proposed structure consists of two different metals on both sides of lithium niobate and a thin layer of graphene. By using two different metals the nonlinear susceptibility of the waveguide would be increased noticeably causing to increase SHG. On the other hand, it consists of two identical gratings on one side. By two identical gratings, the pump beam is coupled to two opposing SPP waves, which interfere with each other and result in SPP standing wave in the region between the two gratings. The distance between two gratings will be optimized to reach the highest SHG. It will be shown that by optimizing the geometry of proposed structure and using different metals, field enhancement in APNCG waveguides can result in large enhancement of SHG.
