Growth of 〈100〉 directed ADP crystal with slotted ampoule

Vacuum‐Assisted Technique to Modify the SR Method for Unidirectional Crystal Growth

“…KDP, TGS, ADP, and benzophenone crystal plates of 2 mm thickness were cut and polished from various parts of the crystals along (101), (001), (101), and (101) plane, respectively, and used for optical measurements without any antireflection coating. It is very well evident from Figure a–d that all the grown crystals have good transparency in the visible region which is better than the reported values found in the literature . Table shows the comparison of the transparency of the grown crystals with other methods including the present setup.…”

Investigations on the solubility, growth, structural, optical, mechanical, dielectric and SHG behaviour of ammonium acetate doped ammonium dihydrogen phosphate crystals

“…Therefore, the weaker chemical bonds, as well as the configuration of growth units, are the determinative factors that govern crystal morphology. The configuration of growth units and the bonding process between them are easily affected by the growth conditions, therefore, the crystal morphology may be changed by the growth conditions consequently [1,19].…”

Effect of crystal violet dye on the structural, optical, mechanical and piezoelectric properties of ADP single crystal

“…Ammonium dihydrogen phosphate (NH4H2PO4; ADP) crystals are widely used for optical switching in modern optoelectronics, optical storage devices, frequency conversion in laser technology and as monochromators for X-ray fluorescence analysis [1,2]. Currently, NH4H2PO4 (ADP) and KH2PO4 (KDP) are used in various applications in laser fusion system by the virtue of their non linear optical (NLO) property [3][4][5]. Large plates of NLO crystals are needed for frequency converters and electro-optic switches.…”

“…Recently extensive research has been carried out on the growth and characterization of ADP doped with organic and inorganic dopants [12][13][14][15]. Large size good quality pure ADP single crystals were grown by Sankaranarayanan-Ramasamy (SR) method [3].…”
