ABSTRACTThis paper reports a potential new organic crystal materials MHBA whose cut-off wavelength is 370nm and powder SHG intensity is 30 times higher than that of Urea. The crystal structure, single crystal growth, linear and nonlinear optical properties of MHBA are reported in detail. MHBA crystal belongs to monoclinic system; space group is P21, and the unit cell parameters are: a=14.057Å, b=7.875Å, c=15.037Å and β=115.45°. The nonlinear susceptibilities are: d11=25.0d36KDP, d12=10d36KDP, d13=33.3d36KDP and d14=8.3d36KDP.

New phosphates Ca9–xPbxEu(PO4)7 were obtained by solid state reaction techniques at 1213–1253 K in air atmosphere and were found to be isotypic with whitlockite-type β-Ca3(PO4)2. The unit cell parameters were determinate using Le Bail decomposition. Rietveld method structural refining showed that Eu3+ ions are located statistically with calcium in M1, M2, and M3 sites, whereas Pb2+-ions are preferentially located in the M3. Examination of optical second harmonic generation evidences nonlinear optical activity and confirms polar space group R3c.

L-valine L-valinium perchlorate monohydrate single crystal has been synthesized by slow evaporation technique at room temperature. The crystal structure and space group of the crystal were confirmed by single crystal X-ray diffractometer. Optical behavior of the crystal was analyzed by using UV-visible spectrophotometer. Thermal stability was discussed by using thermo gravimetric analysis. Mechanical strength of the grown crystal was studied using Vickers microhardness tester. Nonlinear optical property was explored to confirm the second harmonic generation efficiency of the grown crystal. These preliminary investigations suggest that the title compound can serve as a potential material for photonics applications. Full Text: PDF ReferencesD. J.

Gluconate 5-dehydrogenase (Ga5DH; EC 1.1.1.69) from Lentibacter algarum (LaGa5DH) was recombinantly expressed in Escherichia coli and purified to homogeneity. The protein was crystallized and the crystal structure was solved at 2.1 Å resolution. The crystal belonged to the monoclinic system, with space group P1 and unit-cell parameters a = 55.42, b = 55.48, c = 79.16 Å, α = 100.51, β = 105.66, γ = 97.99°. The structure revealed LaGaDH to be a tetramer, with each subunit consisting of six α-helices and three antiparallel β-hairpins. LaGa5DH has high structural similarity to other Ga5DH proteins, demonstrating that this enzyme is highly conserved.

2-((E)-((4-((4-methoxyphenyl)ethynyl)phenyl)imino)methyl-4-((E)phenyldiazenyl)phenol (1) have been synthesized and characterized. X-ray single crystal diffraction study of the compound 1 reveal a monoclinic structure. Room temperature luminescence is observed for 1 in CH2Cl2 solution due to π* → π transition. The SHG efficiency by Kurtz powder technique indicating the compound 1 displayed the second harmonic generation (SHG) property.
