Organic non-linear optical Benzimidazolium salicylate (BISA) single crystals have been harvested from methanol solution by slow evaporation method. The grown crystals belong to the monoclinic crystal system with space group P21/c. Good crystalline nature of grown BISA crystal was confirmed by PXRD. The FTIR spectrum analysis affirms the presence of functional groups in BISA crystal. From the UV‒Vis-Absorption spectrum, the lower cut-off wavelength (356 nm) and its energy band gap and linear refractive index were calculated. Luminescence spectrum was recorded to explore the emission peak at 426 nm. The mechanical strength of BISA crystal was determined by Vickers microhardness tester and mechanical parameters like C11, Hk, Kc, and Bi were calculated for the first time. Dielectric properties of grown crystals were systematically investigated for different temperatures. Further, electronic polarizability (α) were calculated using Penn analysis and Clausius‒Mossotti equation. Z‒scan measurement was taken to explore the third-order NLO properties of BISA crystal. For the first attempt, the BISA crystals were tested against five human pathogenic bacterial, i.e. Bacillus cereus, Staphylococcus aureus, Shigella flexneri, Vibrio cholerae, and Klebsiella pneumoniae. Existing results established that Benzimidazolium salicylate crystals might find useful applications in nonlinear optics and antimicrobial field.

“…In this work, three hydroxyborates, 𝛼-Rb 4 were previously reported [60][61][62][63] and the structural, optical, thermal studies and third-order nonlinear optical properties of C(NH 2 ) 3 B 5 O 6 (OH) 4 •H 2 O were reported by Dhatchaiyini et al [64] The structural and thermal studies of CsB 5 O 6 (OH) 4 •2H 2 O were reported by Penin et al [65] As a result, we summarized the composition design strategy "Cation activation" removing alkali or alkaline earth metal cations that contribute little to birefringence and replacing them with birefringence-active units, and then we carried out experimental verification. Nine hydroxyborates were researched and characterized, covering experimental and theoretical studies.…”

“Cation Activation”: An Effective Strategy for the Enhancement of Birefringence

For traditional birefringent materials, the anion groups play the leading role in birefringence, while the alkali‐metal and alkaline‐earth‐metal cations are nearly inactive. This work proposes a strategy to activate the functions of the cation groups and uses the hydroxyborate systems for illustration. The experimental verification is carried out in the same anionic frame by replacing the traditional metal cations with the birefringence‐active units including planar groups of protonation [C(NH2)3], [C3N2H5], and [CN4H7]. The structures of four new hydroxyborates, α‐Rb2[B4O5(OH)4]·H2O, β‐Rb2[B4O5(OH)4]·H2O, [C(NH2)3]2[B4O5(OH)4]·H2O, and (CN4H7)B5O6(OH)4 are obtained for the first time, and [C(NH2)3]2[B4O5(OH)4]·H2O exhibits a markedly enlarged birefringence, which is about 2.75 times that of α‐Rb2[B4O5(OH)4]·H2O theoretically because the activated cations appear. This strategy breaks the dominant status of anions in the design of UV/deep ultraviolet materials with large birefringence and has significant implications for the rational design and discovery of materials with large birefringence in the future.

“…In addition to inorganic borates, which are undoubtedly one of the most successful groups of NLO materials [4], boric acid itself has a considerable potential in crystal engineering of organic/inorganic hybrid compounds. The presence of this weak inorganic acid in molecular form has been reported in several cocrystals (adducts) (see e.g., [5][6][7][8][9][10]) and coordination compounds (see e.g., [9][10][11]), which were mainly studied with respect to their linear and nonlinear optical [9][10][11] or ferroelastic properties [5,6]. Moreover, several crystalline materials derived from boric acid esters formed by reactions with hydroxy carboxylic acids have also been prepared and characterized (including their basic NLO properties) (see e.g., [12][13][14]).…”

Crystal engineering of novel materials for nonlinear optics (NLO) based on 2-aminopyrimidine yielded two molecular cocrystals with boric acid-trigonal (P3 2 21 space group) 2-aminopyrimidineboric acid (3/2) and monoclinic (C2/c space group) 2-aminopyrimidine-boric acid (1/2). In addition to crystal structure determination by single crystal X-ray diffraction, the cocrystals were characterized by powder X-ray diffraction and vibrational spectroscopy (FTIR and FT Raman). Large single crystals of the non-centrosymmetric cocrystal 2-aminopyrimidine-boric acid (3/2) were grown to study the optical properties and determine the second harmonic generation (SHG) efficiency (using 800 nm fundamental laser line) of powder samples.
