Abstract

The mixed amino-nitrate (GSA) crystals were grown from saturated solutions by slow evaporation technique with molar ratio (3:0.5:0.5), Transparent, elongated crystals of appreciable sizes (16 x 11 x 5 mm) were obtained in about 3-4 weeks time. The solubility of GSA has been determined in water. The grown crystal belongs to orthorhombic system with cell a= 18.478 a.u, b= 12.739 a.u and c= 5.015 a.u. with unit cell volume 1180.69 A.U3. The presences of chemical components/ groups have been identified by CHN and EDAX analysis. Comparative IR and Raman studies indicate a molecule with a lack of centre of symmetry. A wide transparency window useful for optoelectronic applications is indicated by the UV Studies. Using Nd- YAG laser (1064nm), the optical second harmonic generation (SHG) conversion efficiency of GSA have been carried out. Also photoconductivity, I-V characteristics, dielectrics studies, and Vickers micro hardness measurement have been carried out.
