New nonlinear optical single crystal of D-Phenylglycinium bromide (DPGB) was grown by slow evaporation solution growth technique and characterization studies were carried out for the first time. The structure of the grown crystal was elucidated using single crystal X-ray diffraction. EDAX analysis was carried out to confirm the presence of constituent elements in the material. The presence of various functional groups were identified by FT-IR spectral analysis. Optical transmission spectra revealed the optical properties of the grown crystal. The thermal stability of the title crystal was investigated using Thermogravimetric analysis. The second harmonic generation efficiency of the material was tested by Kurtz-Perry powder technique.
