Abstract

Single crystals of para Nitroaniline ( pNA ), an organic nonlinear optical (NLO) material, have been grown by slow solvent evaporation technique at room temperature. Good optical quality single crystals with dimensions of up to 10 × 11 × 3 mm 3 have been grown by adopting the above technique, and good quality single crystals were obtained. The grown single crystals were subjected to different characterization analyses. The lattice dimensions have been determined from the powder X-ray diffraction analysis. Its functional groups and optical behavior have been identified from the FTIR and UV-Vis. analyses respectively. The thermal stability of the crystal has been analyzed by thermogravimetric (TG) and differential thermal (DT) analyses respectively.
