The 1-Iodo-3-Nitrobenzene crystal was grown by the slow evaporation method from ethanol solvent. The crystalline structure was identified by powder X-ray diffraction (PXRD). The presence of various functional group of the title material was examined by FTIR analysis. The UV-Vis absorption was carried out which shows the fundamental cutoff wavelength around 390 nm and there is no absorption in the entire visible region 390 nm to 1100 nm. The mechanical strength of the grown crystal was measured by Vicker’s microhardness tester. The thermal toughness of the grown crystal was observed by TGA-DTA and DSC studies. The electrical conductivity of the grown crystal is confirmed by dielectric measurement. The nonlinear optical character was assessed by Kurtz-Perry powder technique. This would propose that 1-iodo-3-nitro benzene crystal is a potentially capable in nonlinear optical applications.

Single crystals of Anthranilic acid (AA) have been successfully grown and purity of materials has been increased by repeated recrystallization process. Single crystals have been grown by slow evaporation technique. The grown crystal was characterized by Single crystal X-Ray diffraction, Powder XRD, FTIR, UV-Vis, DTA/TGA, Dielectric studies and SHG respectively. The observed results from various characterization show the suitability of NLO application. The second harmonic generation of the grown crystal was checked using Kurtz and Perry technique. Thermal stability and melting point of the grown crystal were found by thermal analysis. The Physical strength of the grown AA crystal was measured from Vicker’s hardness test.
