Abstract
Nonlinear optical “glycine sodium nitrate” transparent single crystals were grown from aqueous solution by the solvent evaporation technique. The ferroelectric transition temperature was determined by dielectric measurement for GSN crystal. Temperature dependent pyroelectric coefficient and figure of merit were measured. The conduction mechanism of GSN crystal has been discussed. The lnσ−E1/2 characteristic in the high-field region supports dominating the Poole–Frenkel conduction while in the low field region; there are possibility of both Richardson–Schottky and Poole–Frenkel conduction mechanism. The activation energy of GSN crystal was found to be 0.58eV. A low value of dielectric constant and good value of the figure of merit suggest the GSN crystal more promising for IR sensing applications. Hardness value shows the stability of GSN crystal.
