Large size single crystals of bis(thiourea)zinc(II) chloride (BTZC), a potential nonlinear optical material, have been grown successfully by the Sankaranarayanan-Ramasamy (SR) method. Powder X-ray diffraction and Fourier transform infrared analyses confirmed the material of the grown crystal. Thermal stability was assessed by the thermogravimetric/differential thermal analysis. The high-resolution X-ray diffraction and dielectric measurements indicate that the crystal grown by the SR method has good crystalline perfection and low density of defects.

The study of imine-bridged organics has been the hot spot synthesis of second order nonlinear optical (SONLO) and photo-responsive materials in recent years. Herein we present a study of synthesis, growth, and characterization of ([paranitrophenyl]imino)benzene (PNPIB) NLO single crystal. The title compound was synthesized in one step by Schiff base formation. <110> PNPIB single crystal of diameter of 40 mm and length 50 mm was successfully grown by SR method using a seed as the nucleus. The growth rate formula is derived for the SR method. PNPIB single crystals of 10 mm diameter and 60 mm height have been grown at an average growth rate of 3 mm per day from the point seed in a glass crystallizer. Almost 100% stable crystal conversion efficiency was achieved. The as grown PNPIB crystals were characterized using single crystal X-ray diffraction (XRD), X-ray powder diffraction (XRPD), Fourier Transform Infrared (FTIR), Ultraviolet-Visible-Near Infrared (UV-Vis-NIR), 1 H & 13C NMR spectral studies, dielectric measurement and NLO studies. Single crystal XRD analysis confirms that the grown ingot belongs to the space group of P 2 of monoclinic system thus exhibiting noncentrosymmetric structure. The crystalline perfection was assessed by XRPD. The powder diffraction pattern of the grown crystal has been indexed. The presence of C=N bond with intramolecular hydrogen bonding and the protonation of ions were confirmed by FTIR analysis. The UV-Vis-NIR spectrum of the crystal shows that the crystal has a cut-off at 298 nm. The 1 H & 13 C NMR spectra confirm the molecular structure. The dielectric behaviour was measured in the frequency range 1 KHz -10 KHz for the temperature range from 30˚C to 170˚C. The slight decrease in dielectric constant has been observed as the frequency is increased and the dielectric loss is very low for the entire frequency range. The second harmonic generation (SHG) in the crystal was observed by Kurtz powder technique.

The elastic properties of the zinc tris (thiourea) sulphate crystal were studied by Brillouin spectroscopy in the range 80 -300 K. The measurements were made on single crystals obtained by the isothermal method. The temperature dependences of the Brillouin shift were determined for the crystal in the principal directions and in a few mixed directions on a tandem type spectrometer. The results revealed anomalies in the bulk wave propagation rate and in a few elastic constants at about 138 K.
