A new organic charge transfer molecular complex salt of benzimidazolium salicylate (BSL) single crystals was grown by the slow evaporation solution growth technique using methanol as a solvent at room temperature. The grown crystals were characterised by single crystal X-ray diffraction (XRD) which confirms that the crystal belongs to monoclinic system with the centrosymmetric space group P21/c. The crystalline perfection of the grown crystal was analyzed by high resolution X-ray diffraction (HRXRD). The presence of various functional groups was identified by FTIR spectrum. UV-Vis spectral study reveals that the BSL crystal is optically transparent in the wavelength region 342 nm–1100 nm. Dielectric measurements of the crystal at various frequencies were also determined. The mechanical properties of the grown crystal were assessed using Vickers microhardness testing. Nonlinear optical property of the crystal was confirmed using Kurtz and Perry powder technique and the SHG efficiency of the BSL crystal is 0.7 times greater than that of the standard KDP crystal.

AbstractL-cysteine hydrogen fluoride (LCHF) single crystals were grown from aqueous solution. Single crystal X-ray diffraction, FT-IR, UV-Vis-NIR, and TG-DTA were used to test the grown crystals. The specimen dielectric and mechanical behaviors were also studied. Powder X-ray diffraction of the grown crystal was recorded and indexed. The optical properties of the LCHF crystal were determined using UV-Vis spectroscopy. It was found that the optical band gap of LCHF was 4.8 eV. The crystal functional groups were identified using FT-IR. Second harmonic generation (SHG) efficiency of the LCHF was three times higher than that of KDP. The dielectric constant, dielectric loss and AC conductivity were measured at different frequencies and temperatures.

Single crystals of pure and thiourea substituted L-alanine single crystals were grown successfully by the solution method with slow evaporation technique at room temperature. The effect of dopant on crystal properties has been studied. The solubility of the grown samples was found at various temperatures. Structural characterization of the grown crystals was determined by the single crystal X-ray diffraction (XRD). EDAX studies indicate the presence of thiourea in the doped L-alanine crystals. The functional groups were identified by FTIR spectroscopy. The UV-Vis- NIR spectral studies were carried out to analyze the optical absorption of the grown crystals and found that the absorption is very low in the wavelength region 232-1000nm for both the samples. SEM studies explain the surface morphologies of the grown crystals. Improvement in the SHG efficiency was studied by the Kurtz and Perry method. Thermal analysis has been carried on the grown crystal. Keywords: NLO, XRD, EDAX, UV-Vis-NIR, SEM

The design of multicomponent crystals offers a means to modify the physicochemical properties of crystals without altering the chemical properties of a particular molecule. In this study, a multicomponent crystal, the salt of malonic acid with p-chloroaniline, was synthetized and structurally characterized. The title compound wasprepared by grinding in an agate mortar, and its structure was studied by powder and single-crystal X-ray diffraction. This compound crystallize in the monoclinic system with space group P21/c, Z = 4, and unit cell parameters a = 12.9776(7)Å, b = 9.2308(5)Å, c = 8.5170(5)Å, β = 93.474(3)°. The multicomponent compound, p-chloroanilinium semi-malonate, can be described as an ionic ensemble assisted by hydrogen bonds established between p-chloroanilinium cations and semi-malonate anions. The molecular structure and crystal packing are stabilized mainly by intermolecular O-H•••O and N-H•••O hydrogen bonds interactions. The molecules construct a supramolecular assembly with a two-dimensional hydrogen bonded network along the ca plane.

Abstract Fe1-xMexBO3 (Me = Al, Sc) single crystals have been synthesized by flux growth technique using B2O3-PbO-PbF2 solvent and approach of identical synthesis conditions. The contents of the diamagnetic ions Me in the initial charge of both compositions were equal, xcharge=0.05. The exact contents and crystal lattice parameters of the synthesized crystals were determined by X-ray fluorescence analysis and X-ray diffraction, respectively.

Abstract This work aims at the growth and characterization of novel semi-organometallic nonlinear optical (NLO) crystal 4-(((4-aminophenyl) sulfonyl) oxy)-2,3-dihydroxy-4-oxobutanoic acid (ASODA) with ammonium ceric (II) sulfate dehydrate (ACS). The crystal 4-(((4-aminophenyl) sulfonyl) oxy)-2,3-dihydroxy-4-oxobutanoic acid with Ce3+ (STA) was grown by slow evaporation solution growth technique using deionized water as a solvent. Crystalline system of the grown STA crystal was identified by a single crystal X-ray diffraction study and confirmed as monoclinic crystalline system with non-centrosymmetric space group P21/C. The powder X-ray diffraction study confirmed the purity and crystallinity of the crystal. The presence of functional groups and hydrogen bonds (–O–H–O–) was confirmed by FT-IR spectroscopy. UV-Vis spectra showed that the grown crystal had a low cutoff wavelength at 219 nm. The position of protons and carbons were determined by structural studies based on NMR technique. The grown crystal was thermally stable up to 130 °C and its melting point was 163 °C. The SHG studies were performed by Quanta Ray Model laser source using Kurtz powder technique. The NLO efficiency of the STA crystal was 0.5 times greater than that of standard KDP. The dielectric constant and dielectric loss of the grown crystal were studied at different temperatures. The surface morphology and the particle size of the crystal were determined by FE-SEM technique. From the mechanical studies, it was found that the grown crystal is a soft material.

Single crystals of pure and molybdenum (Mo)-doped potassium titanyl phosphate (KTP) crystals were grown by the high-temperature solution growth technique. The presence of dopant ions in the grown crystal was confirmed by energy-dispersive X-ray analysis. Grown crystals, cut along various growth planes such as (100), (011) or (201), were analysed for crystalline perfection using high-resolution X-ray diffraction (HRXRD). Although the HRXRD study showed that the crystalline perfection of most of the crystals was quite good without any structural defects, structural grain boundaries were observed in some of the crystals chosen for study. The observed structural defects are probably due to mechanical or thermal fluctuations occurring during the growth process.

We concentrate on the low temperature slow solvent evaporation method and characterization of pure and 1, 10 phenanthraline doped KB5 and describe its potential as a non-linear optical material. The grown crystal has been subjected to single crystal X-ray diffraction analysis to identify the unit cell parameters and crystal system. The presence of carbon, hydrogen and oxygen content were confirmed by CHN analysis. The Kurtz’s-Perry powder SHG efficiency was determined for both pure and 1, 10 phenanthraline doped KB5 crystals as 1.6 and 2.2 times than that of pure KDP. Laser damage threshold studies of the pure and doped KB5 crystals have been found to be Q-Switched Nd-YAG laser.
