Abstract
The growth of nonlinear optical single crystal of manganese mercury thiocyanate glycol monomethyl ether (MMTG), a Lewis base adduct of manganese mercury thiocyanate (MMTC), is reported. MMTG crystallizes in orthorhombic structure with Pca2 1 space group. The optical band gap energy of the sample is found to be 3.5 eV. The sample is thermally stable up to 145 °C. The grown crystal is characterized by photoluminescence, dielectric, dc conductivity, photoconductivity and SEM studies. From the photoluminescence study, the suitability of the material for blue and green light generation is confirmed. The electric and dielectric response of the grown crystal is studied as a function of temperature and the results are discussed. The dc activation energy of the sample is found to be 0.048 eV.
