“…It is well known that acetone does not possess an extensively conjugated system. Therefore, in comparison to our synthesized metallogel, acetone exhibited a nonlinear refractive index value 1 order of magnitude lower than that reported by Iliopoulos et al It is reported that conjugated organic systems, supported by enhanced hydrogen bonding interactions, effectively offer third-order nonlinear optical properties. , Thus, it is conceivable that the intra- and intermolecular hydrogen bonding interactions within the Cd-CA metallogel network may also contribute to the observed nonlinear optical activity.…”

The charge transport characteristics of a citraconic acid-directed supramolecular metallogel of Cd(II), named as Cd-CA, are extensively explored by fabricating a Schottky barrier diode using an Al/Cd-CA/ITO configuration, revealing remarkable semiconducting attributes in the present study. An estimated conductivity of 2.06 × 10 −4 S/m, rectification ratio (J +1V /J −1V ) of 62.38, and barrier height Φ B = 0.65 eV of the Cd-CA metallogel-based Schottky diode are obtained. Additionally, we probe the broadband nonlinear optical (NLO) properties of the Cd-CA metallogel through the femtosecond Zscan method at excitation photon energies below its band gap (E g = 4.81 eV) at 2.98, 2.34, 1.65, and 1.24 eV. Intriguingly, the gel exhibits positive nonlinear refraction and multiphoton absorption (MPA), including two-, three-, and four-photon processes. The material exhibits (i) two-photon absorption at a pump photon energy of 2.98 eV, (ii) simultaneous two-and three-photon absorption at 2.34 eV, (iii) enhanced three-photon absorption at 1.65 eV excitation, and (iv) four-photon absorption with a low optical limiting threshold at 1.24 eV. A nonlinear refraction (n 2 ) of 2.29 × 10 −6 cm 2 /GW and nonlinear absorption (β) of 14.13 × 10 −2 cm/ GW are obtained at 65 GW/cm 2 with an excitation wavelength of 530 nm. This work elucidates the factors behind semiconducting and NLO properties of the Cd-CA metallogel, presenting a potential path for its utilization in optical switches and limiters.

“…Search and study of salts of L-arginine (L-Arg) is of interest both from the point of view of the discovery of crystals with NLO, pyroelectric and piezoelectric properties and from the point of view of studying the structural features and mechanisms of formation [1][2][3][4][5][6][7]. The authors [8] investigated the structures of L-Arg•HCl (IV), L-Arg•HBr•H2O (V), L-Arg•HCl•H2O (VI) crystals with space group P21 and showed that the last two are isomorphous.…”

The systems of L-arginine with halogen acids (hydrochloric and hydrobromic) in water solvent under the influence of acoustic waves and without them were investigated in this study. Nine compounds were obtained and identified: (I) L-arginine hydrobromide, (II) L-arginine hydrochloride (space group P1), (III) L-arginine hydrobromide, (IV) L-arginine hydrochloride (sp. gr. P21), (V) L-arginine hydrobromide monohydrate (sp. gr. P21), (VI) L-arginine hydrochloride monohydrate (sp. gr. P21), (VII) L-arginine dihydrobromide monohydrate (sp. gr. P1), (VIII) L-arginine dihydrochloride monohydrate (sp. gr. P212121) and (IX) L-arginine dihydrochloride (sp. gr. P21), of which (I), (III) and (IX) crystals were obtained and studied for the first time. The conditions for the formation of all the compounds were described. The FT-IR ATR spectra of obtained crystals were presented and compared. Based on the IR spectra, it can be assumed that the crystals of (II) and (I) are isostructural, the same for (IV) and (III). The crystal and molecular structure of L-arginine dihydrochloride (sp. gr. P21) was studied by X-ray diffraction method. Thermal and other properties were investigated. The efficiency of the second harmonic generation of all the crystals was measured and compared with that of the KDP.
