Abstract

Pure and ZnCl 2 doped anthracene (AN & ANZ) single crystals were grown by the slow evaporation method. In XRD studies a shift in peaks towards higher theta value and change in preferred orientation from (0 0 1) to (0 0 2) were observed as a result of doping. UV–vis spectra show a blueshift of various peaks in ANZ. Remarkable increases in dielectric constant and AC conductivity were observed along with a structure related phase transition at 40 °C in ANZ at atmospheric pressure itself. Good fluorescence properties with a strong green emission were observed in photoluminescence studies.
