Abstract

An organic nonlinear optical single crystal, 2-methylquinolinium L-malate (MLM) was grown from ethanol solvent using slow evaporation solution growth technique. The single crystal X-ray diffraction studies confirmed that the crystal belongs to the monoclinic system with the non-centrosymmetric space group P21. The crystal is transparent in the entire visible region. The second harmonic generation efficiency of the grown crystal has been obtained by the Kurtz-Perry powder technique. The laser damage threshold value 5.58 GW/cm2 indicates that this crystal can be used for high-power laser applications.
