Abstract
Grow of good optical quality single crystals of l-arginine trifluoroacetate (LATF), a new semiorganic nonlinear optical (NLO) material is reported. Bulk crystals have been successfully grown from solution by the temperature lowering method. Growth rate and effects of seed orientation on morphologies of LATF crystals were studied. The crystals were characterized by density measurement, optical absorption spectrum, differential scanning calorimetry (DSC) and microhardness studies.
