摘要
A semiorganic nonlinear optical material (thiosemicarbazide cadmium chloride monohydrate) (TCCM) was synthesized and single crystals was grown from aqueous solution by slow evaporation method at ambient temperature. Crystal of average size up to 5 x 4 x 3 mm(3) were harvested and characterized by powder X-ray diffractometry (XRD) and Fourier transfer infrared (FUR) technique to confirm the identity of the compound formed. The thermal stability was analyzed by TG/DTA. The birefringence values (Delta(n)) were determined in the wavelength region 540-6500 angstrom. The second harmonic generation (SHG) from the materials was confirmed using Nd:YAG laser. (C) 2009 Elsevier GmbH. All rights reserved.
