Abstract

Single crystals of semiorganic nonlinear optical material Triglycine Sodium Halides(TGSH) have been grown from aqueous solution by slow evaporation technique at constant temperature. The powder X-ray diffraction of the grown crystals is recorded and indexed. Functional groups present in the samples are identified by FTIR spectral analysis. The optical absorption studies shows that the UV cut off wavelength is around 300nm and has a wide transparency window. The powder second harmonic generation efficiency of the crystals is measured by Kurtz and Perry powder technique using Nd:YAG laser and it is 1.5 times for Triglycine Sodium Chloride, 1.2 times for Triglycine Sodium Bromide and 1.4 times for Triglycine potassium Iodide crystals that of the standard KDP crystals. Triglycine Sodium halide crystals show very good stability under laser irradiation with no signs of decomposition. Laser damage threshold energy density of Triglycine Sodium Iodide is found to be 857 MW/cm2 and 540MW/cm2 for Triglycine Sodium Chloride crystals.
