Growth and characterization of L-arginine acetate single crystals: a new NLO material

Nucleation kinetics and growth aspects of organic nonlinear optical L‐arginine trifluoroacetate single crystals

“…It is three times more nonlinear than that of KDP [2][3]. The refractive index and SHG measurement looked promising for L-arginine with acids like fluoride, chloride and acetate [4][5][6]. L-arginine trifluoroacetate (LATF), one of the important analogs of L-arginine, has better thermal stability and transparency than LAP [7].…”

Growth, Spectral, Thermal and Dielectric Properties of Triglycine Phosphate Non Linear Optical Crystal

“…The development of photonic and optoelectronic technologies rely heavily on the growth of NLO materials with high nonlinear optical responses and the development of novel and more efficient materials [3]. Many NLO crystals grown by mixing amino acids with various organic and inorganic acids have been reported in the literature [4][5][6]. Amino acids are interesting materials for NLO application as they contain proton donar carboxyl acid (-COO) group and the proton acceptor amino (NH 2 ) group in them [7].…”

Dielectric and Theoretical Studies on L-histidinium 2-nitrobenzoate NLO Single Crystal

“…Solution growth is a versatile technique which can be used to synthesis and grow new nonlinear optical materials and so it stimulates considerable interest among the researchers in the field of crystal growth. Hence, it may be useful to prepare semi-organic crystals which combine the positive aspects of organic and inorganic materials resulting in useful nonlinear optical properties [10]. One of the essential requirements for a material to exhibit second order optical susceptibilities described by third rank polar tensor is that the crystal should have noncentrosymmetric space group.…”
