Abstract
A semi-organic nonlinear optical material, sodium di(L-malato) borate (NaDMB) has been synthesized. Optically good quality bulk single crystal of NaDMB was successfully grown by slow evaporation solution technique (SEST) and Sankaranarayanan-Ramasamy (SR) method at 36 °C. Transparent, colourless crystal of size 22 mm X 8 mm X 6 mm with well defined morphology was grown by SEST and oriented unidirectional bulk single crystal of size 48 mm length and 16 mm diameter was grown by SR method. The grown crystals were subjected to single crystal X-ray diffraction studies. The crystal belongs to monoclinic structure with space group P21. The grown crystals were characterized by UV-vis studies. The structural perfection of the grown crystal has been analyzed by high-resolution X-ray diffraction (HRXRD) rocking curve measurements. The differential thermal (DTA) and thermogravimetric (TG) analysis traces reveal the thermal stability of the sample. The second-harmonic generation efficiency was estimated by Kurtz...
