The lattice parameters of the grown crystal have been determined by X-ray diffraction studies. Vibrational spectrum is recorded to determine symmetries of molecular vibrations. Optical absorbance spectrum recorded revealed that this crystal has good transparency in the visible region. The second harmonic generation test of BTNB confirmed the nonlinear nature of the crystal. The BTNB crystal was analyzed by a differential thermal analysis and thermogravimetric analysis (DTA-TGA) to obtain its thermal stability. Vickers microhardness test done on the crystal shows that the crystal has greater physical strength.展开更多

The grown crystals have been characterized by single crystal XRD analysis, powder XRD analysis, FTIR analysis, UV-Vis-NIR analysis and SHG studies. XRD analysis confirms the crystalline nature of the materials. The addition of L-alanine changes the crystal structure from orthorhombic to tetragonal. The presence of various functional groups present in the pure BTCB and LABTCB crystals have been confirmed by FTIR analysis. The UV-Vis-NIR spectrum shows the transmission characteristics of the crystals. The SHG study depicts the nonlinear optical efficiency of the crystals.展开更多

The FTIR analysis reveals that the C-N stretching frequencies of thiourea are shifted towards the higher frequencies for pure and Zinc mixed BTCC and the C = S stretching frequencies are shifted towards the lower frequencies for pure and Zinc mixed BTCC crystals. These observations suggest that the metals coordinate with thiourea through sulphur. UV-Vis-NIR spectra were recorded to study the optical transparency of the grown crystals. The lower cutoff wavelength is observed at 233 nm for the pure BTCC crystals. There is no comparable change in the lower cutoff wavelength for the Zinc mixed BTCC crystals. The Nonlinear Optical (NLO) efficiency of the pure BTCC crystal decreases with the increase percentage mixing of Zinc. The SHG output for BTCC mixed with 1% zinc chloride is almost 9 times greater than the SHG output obtained for Pottasium Dihydrogen Phosphate (KDP) crystal. Vicker’s microhardness test done on the experimental crystals proves their greater physical strength.展开更多
