Abstract

Single crystal of l-cysteiniumchloride nicotinamide monohydrate (LCNM), a nonlinear optical material of size 29×7×4mm3 is grown by adopting slow solvent evaporation technique. The lattice parameters are calculated from single crystal X-ray diffraction analysis. The functional groups and chemical compositions are identified from FTIR studies. In order to know the optical quality of the grown material, the UV–visible transmission spectrum is recorded and optical band gap is calculated. The thermal stability and purity of the material is analyzed by thermogravimetry, differential thermal analysis and differential scanning calorimetry techniques. The second harmonic generation test of the grown crystal is confirmed by Nd:YAG laser.
