Abstract
Calcium acetamido iminodiacetate single crystals with third order nonlinear optical activity have been synthesized by silica gel diffusion method. The structure of the compound was confirmed by elemental analysis, FT – IR, FT-Raman spectroscopy and single crystal X-ray diffraction method. Thermogravimetry was used quite strategically to establish the thermal stability. The compound belongs to orthorhombic space group Pbac, having cell parameters a = 9.4805(6) Å, b = 9.9256 (7) Å, c = 20. 4046 (14) Å, α = β = γ = 90° Optical parameters for the crystals were examined using UV–Visible spectroscopy. Z scan technique has been utilized to find out nonlinear refractive index, nonlinear absorption coefficient and third order susceptibility. Procured results of Z scan support the suitability of the grown crystal for photonics and laser assisted uses.
