Growth and Characterization of L-Glutamic Acid Thiourea Crystal for NLO Applications

Abstract

The L-Glutamic acid doped thiourea single crystals were grown successfully by slow-evaporation technique. The structure and morphology identified through XRD analysis. The functional group and cut-off wavelength are performed thorough FTIR and UV-Visible spectroscopical analysis.  The non-linear behavior analysed with second harmonic generation set up. The thermal stability of the growned crystal studied with thermo-gravimetric analysis(TGA), differential thermo-gravimetric analysis(DTA). The hysic-mechanical nature of crystal also studied.
