“…Since these man-made single crystalline materials could accelerate an explosive development for widespread applications in science, industry, communication, optoelectronics, information processing, frequency conversion, higher resolution printing, lasers, optical data storage, environmental studies, spectroscopy, medicine, and the military, the growth and characterization of high-quality single crystals continue to be a di cult task for researchers around the world. Most of the remarkable modern technology has been made possible owing to a signi cant measure of the invention of microelectronic, optoelectronic, and optical devices made of such produced crystals [1][2][3][4][5]. Noncentrosymmetry is a crucial criterion for an NLO material such that wide second-order nonlinearities can be produced by a large number of organic crystals, which is important for possible applications in many different disciplines [6][7][8][9].…”

Over the years, growing highly efficient crystals in performing multi-level applications has consistently consolidated its position whereby a good number of novel crystals are kept added such that the emerging technology keeps on moving to the next possible level. On this count, R-Mandelic acid S-alanine hemihydrate (RMSA) single crystals with nonlinear optical (NLO) activity were produced at 37°C by the solvent evaporation technique. X-ray diffraction assessment on the single crystal as well as in the powder form was used to estimate the lattice constants. The crystal structure of RMSA is found to be triclinic. According to the transmission spectrum, RMSA's UV cutoff wavelength is 268 nm. Using FTIR spectroscopy, the vibrations of functional groups were clarified. The 13C-NMR spectroscopy was used to determine the molecular structure of RMSA. The Kurtz-Perry SHG test revealed that SHG was existent at a considerable level. When RMSA is compared to pure alanine, the SHG efficiency is discovered to be higher. Utilizing the He-Ne laser and single-beam Z-scan technology, a third-order nonlinear optical investigation was carried out. Positive nonlinearity in RMSA was revealed by a closed-aperture approach, while reverse saturation was revealed by an open-aperture analysis. The obtained results establish the possibility of RMSA as a crystal to be used in optoelectronic and optical device applications to obtain output with high efficiency.
