摘要
Single crystals of organic nonlinear optical (NLO) materials L-Histidine nitrate (C6H10N3O2)(+) center dot (NO3)(-) and L-Cysteine tartrate monohydrate (C3H8NO2S)(+) center dot (C4H5O6)(-) center dot H2O were grown by submerged seed solution method. Characterization of the crystals was made using single crystal X-ray diffraction. Fourier transform infrared (FTIR) spectroscopic studies, optical behaviour such as UV-visible-NIR absorption spectra and second harmonic generation (SHG) conversion efficiency were investigated to explore the NLO characteristics of the above materials. Microhardness measurements and dielectric studies of the compounds were also carried out. (C) 2007 Elsevier B.V. All rights reserved.
