Abstract

In the present research article, we report the impact of shock waves and the crystallographic structural stability of pure, 0.001 M and 0.01M xylenol orange doped potassium dihydroegn phosphate (KDP) powder samples. The structural stability and crystalline nature of the test samples are demonstrated by powder X-ray diffraction and Raman spectroscopy. The obtained structural properties clearly show that the control sample has a highly stable crystallographic phase at the atomic level. But several shoulder peaks have appeared at shocked conditions due to the lattice distortions and lattice disorders in atomic sites. Among the three samples, 0.001M dye doped KDP exhibits the least shock resistance. The interesting results obtained such as crystallographic phase stability and degree of crystalline stability of the test samples during the course of the experiment are discussed.
