Abstract

The slow evaporation method was employed to grow γ-glycine nonlinear optical crystal at ambient temperature. Analyses of powder X-ray diffractions confirm the crystal is in a γ-phase. Our experiment investigated how the additive impacted the optical transparency of the glycine crystal using a linear optical transmittance analysis. In order to determine whether the title compound had polymorphic phase transitions and heat stability, a DSC study was conducted. The SHG productivity of the grown material is 3.83 times larger than the reference (KDP) crystal. There is evidence that these crystals are cytotoxic, indicating that they might serve as anticancer agents.
