Nonlinear optical behaviour of bis (cytosinium) tartarate monohydrate single crystal

A nonlinear optical single crystal of bis (cytosinium) tartarate monohydrate (BCTM) was grown by slow evaporation method at room temperature. Single crystal X-ray diffraction study revealed their cell parameters and corresponding space group. Different functional groups were identified by using FTIR...

description A nonlinear optical single crystal of bis (cytosinium) tartarate monohydrate (BCTM) was grown by slow evaporation method at room temperature. Single crystal X-ray diffraction study revealed their cell parameters and corresponding space group. Different functional groups were identified by using FTIR spectral analysis. Phase purity of the grown crystal was analysed by chemical etching and powder X-ray diffraction studies. The mechanical strength of the grown crystal was estimated using Vickers microhardness test. The thermal stability of the grown crystal was investigated by TGA-DTA studies. The optical absorption study was carried out in the wavelength range of 190–1100 nm. The dielectric response of the grown crystal was studied as a function of frequency at different temperatures. Second harmonic generation efficiency (SHG) was measured by Kurtz and Perry powder technique. The Z-scan pattern clearly evidenced that the BCTM exhibits sequential two photon absorption induced reverse saturable absorption.
