The semiorganic crystal of sodium acid phthalate (NaAP) single crystals was grown in the solvent of water by slow evaporation method at room temperature. The single crystal X-ray diffraction studies showed the crystal belongs to orthorhombic system. The optical absorption spectrum reveals that the crystal has good transparency in entire visible region. The hardness number of the material is measured by microhardness tester. The fluorescence green colour emission exhibits is semiorganic. The SHG efficiency of NaAP crystal confirms NLO behaviour of green colour emission to provide frequency doubling process for photo electronic applications.
